Detailed answer

DTAA stands for Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement. India has treaties with many countries.

Relief may work through exemption, reduced withholding or foreign tax credit depending on the treaty article and income type.

Claiming relief usually needs documentation such as tax residency certificate, foreign tax proof and correct disclosure in the Indian ITR.
