Hi everyone,
I am an Indian citizen who stayed in Germany from Nov 2011-Nov 2012. While in Germany I started freelancing and due to the laws of the country I had to pay taxes in Germany. I continued working as a freelancer till January 2013. Essentially only 2 months of my time in India I drew the salary as a freelancer. All the money earned from freelancing has been transferred to my Indian account.
For the 2 months of freelancing money made I do not fall in the taxable slab for the financial year.How do I file the returns for the year. I have all my proofs of taxes paid in Germany for the money made. My questions to the experts are :
1. Do I have to file taxes for just the 2 months?
2. How or which forms do I need to fill ?
3. How should I show the proofs of the German tax paid..If it needs to be shown at all?
