How to declare overseas tax paid salary income in india & which sec. of i-tax act applicable to it

Dear Sirs,

I have below stated three questions regarding filing of Income tax return FY 2017-18

Since last 12 year I am working outside India and I am having a RNOR status for the purpose of filing Income Tax return

( 1 ) How I can declare my tax paid salary income which I have earned outside India and later same has been transferred to my Indian NRE a/c , I have already been paid Tax on it (and having a CERTIFICATE OF TOTAL TAX PAID YEAR WISE)  in overseas country where i am working, so when i declare this oversea salary in India, under which section of Income Tax act I can claim oversea salary as a exempted income to avoid double taxation.

( 2 )As per my knowledge Interest from NRE a/c is fully exempted, I want to know under which section of Income Tax Act  Interest income from NRE a/c is exempted.

( 3 )For declaration of the above income which no. of IT form will be applicable.

Since you have earned and received salary outside India simce its not taxable in India. No need to show that in ITR.

Interest on NRE a/c is non taxable u/s 10(4)(ii)

If you have not earned any income in India then file Nil return.

No need to disclose above Income.

Thanks a lot for valuable guidance.

Regards

Ashok
