Others 3684 views 18 replies

Dear All,


I want a suggestion on the issue:

Assessee was in India during the PY for 182 days and as per other conditions also He is Resident and ordinary resident in India.

He was employed in USA for 5 months and TDS was also deducted in US accordingly for US salary there.
He also earned salary in India and TDS was deducted as per Indian law accordingly (for the period he was in India).

Now for ITR in India as per provisions of residential status and tax incidence, foreign income will also come under perview of taxation.

As for foreign salary, TDS was deducted in US as per US law and DTAA exists with US.

So now whether foreign salary will be shown in ITR in India and then exemption as per DTAA will be shown? 
OR there is no need to show foriegn salary in ITR in India as TDS in US was deducted properly?

Plz suggest.

Hi,

 

I believe income the Income earned in US also to be shown in the return to be filed in India and relief available for tax paid in US to be deducted under `Relief`...

As per ARTICLE 25 (2)(a) of DTAA between India and USA.

2. (a) Where a resident of India derives income which, in accordance with the provisions of this Convention, may be taxed in the United States, India shall allow as a deduction from the tax on the income of that resident an amount equal to the income-tax paid in the United States, whether directly or by deduction. Such deduction shall not, however, exceed that part of the income-tax (as computed before the deduction is given) which is attributable to the income which may be taxed in the United States.
