29 December 2015 Dear Sir,

I have a consulting services agreement for a foreign company. I travel every alternate month for 28 days this will not earn a NRI status.
I get 400 euros as a daily consulting service charges for the day i work in a foreign country.
Is this income taxable in India ??
I get a day rate consulting charge not a salary outside India

30 December 2015 Thanks a lot for a quick reply.
How the tax rate is calculated for the consulting service i provide outside India and I am a resident.
I pay 10% tax in the foreign country also.

30 December 2015 normal tax rate will apply for you as a resident. You can claim credit for the taxes paid outside India
