Hi Friends,

One of my friend has received income from USA as well as India during PY 13 - 14 for 9 months he was in india and 3 months he was in USA. Employer has deducted tax in India as well as USA. I have form 16 of USA as well as India for filling his ITR.

And at what exchange rate should I convert the amount of USA Form 16 to fill in the ITR.

TDs deducted in USA is shown in form W2 provided to you by the client. Compute relief u/s 90 and fill in the details of relief u/s sec 90 annexure. like employer details etc.

Status of your assessee is ROR. hence he will be covered under the DTAA USA. Relief will be granted as deduction.

For computing the relief, you need to tell me the entire details. Just PM me.

Well what I can understand is that the Salary Received in USA by your friend has already been Taxed once. Your Friend's Stay in India was more than 182 days and thus he can be said to be an Ordinary Resident. Global Income is Taxable In the Hands of Resident Assessee. Main point of worry is that Income already taxed in USA will be Taxed AGain India.

Sec 90 Agreement with Foreign Countriess (DTAA) is applicable in Your Case.

TAx paid in USA shall be allowed s a deduction from the Tax Payable in India. Go through Section 90 as I Beleive u have all the details as is required for this purpose.
