File the Indian Income tax return for AY 2025-26 declaring the foreign income earned in the Netherlands(Jan1 ,2024 to June 2025). The return should be filed under Section 139 of the Income Tax Act.
Declare foreign assets in the schedule FA(Foreign Assets) of the ITR, as required by the department's notice.
Claim foreign tax credit (FTC) for the taxes paid in the Netherlands to avoid double taxation. This is done in Form 67 under Rule 128 of the Income Tax Rules.
Respond to the department notice with the filed return and supporting documents (proof of foreign inocme, tax paid in Netherlands, and Form 67 for FTC.
Check residency status for the relevant period, as it affects the taxability of foreign income in India.
