Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how to treat casual contract income earned in Australia from April to July 2021. The consensus is that this foreign income should not be added to Indian salary income. Instead, it should be declared under the head Income from Other Sources (IFOS) or Profits and Gains from Business or Profession (PGBP). Normal slab tax rates will apply to this income.

Show as salary
Can I club the salary income from aug to march'21 received in india and the casual contract income together under the head salaries??
Yes....

It should be declared under head IFOS or PGBP.

Why sir??

The contract income would not have been added in form 16.

While it is foreign remittance, query may be raised if not declared in proper manner.

Under what category we have to show that foreign income?? what tax rate will be applicable on that or it will be taxable at normal rates??

Easiest option is to declare it under IFOS.

Yes normal slab rate will apply.
