Employer Details for NRI

If an (Onsite) NRI has ZERO Salary from Indian Employer, does he/she require to fill Indin Employer details in ITR2. If he/she fills details it asks for Salary Details, as not taking ZERO Basic Salary.

What to do please clarify.

Can he/she submit ITR with No Employer details filled but fill other sources of income, etc.

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) with no salary from an Indian employer need to fill in Indian employer details on their ITR2 form. The consensus is that if there's no salary or pension income from an Indian employer, the 'Schedule Salary' section can be left blank. If issues persist, removing the schedule entirely from the 'General' page resolves the problem. Previously, entering a nominal amount like 'Zero' or 'Re 1' for basic salary was accepted, but leaving it blank is the correct procedure when no income is received.

When there is no salry or pension, no need to enter any detail in Schedule Salary. If the prblem persists, remove the schedule from first 'General' page.

Thanks Sir. Already this has been done by not filling any employer details. Problem was solved. But last year with employer details Basic salary was filled Zero (or probably Re 1/=) and it was accepted.

Thanks again.

 

Experts like you give strength to my thinking and suggest me the CORRECT METHODS.

Thanks
