05 March 2018 Dear Fellow Colleagues,

I would request your help in the following :

My client has a property in India

The property is in the joint name

both the clients husband and wife are NRI with no other income from INDIA

Their property is rented out to an individual who will be paying a rent of INR 9000 per month i.e. total yearly INR 108,000 to this NRI.

Rent will be paid to NRO account by the tenant.

Please can someone confirm if the TDS ( @30.9%) needs to be deducted while paying monthly rent of INR 9000? OR No TDS required to be deducted?

Alternatively, the property is managed by their PoA Holder who is in blood relation to the family, can this income from rent be taxed in the tax return of the PoA Holder?

TiA
Mahi

The rent would be deposited into NRO account
