Interest earned from CPF fund in Singapore

826 views 2 replies

A person is having Central Provident fund (CPF) in Singapore when he was in employment there.

Now For FY 23-24 his status will become Resident and Ordinarily resident.

CPF fund lies in Singapore only.

Whether interest earned during FY 23-24 for CPF in Singapore will become taxable in India?

Is there any exemption available?

Interest from PF , PPF is exempt.

Specific provision is not there for CPF but you can proceed based on the above.

The interest income will be taxed in India under the head of other sources. Refer to DTAA for exemption. If no relief is provided in DTAA, then you can claim Tax Credit in India.

In case of any further queries, kindly mail me at casoravgupta @ gmail.com
