When must an NRI file an income tax return in India?

An NRI is required to file in India if India-sourced income (salary, rent, interest, capital gains) exceeds ₹2.5 lakh, or if there are any capital gains from Indian property/shares, FEMA-reportable foreign assets, or a TDS refund to claim. Filing goes through ITR-2 or ITR-3 — ITR-1 isn't available to NRIs.

What is DTAA and how does it benefit NRIs?

DTAA — the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement — is a treaty India holds with 90+ countries to stop the same income being taxed twice. For NRIs, that typically means lower TDS on Indian income (for example, 15% instead of 20% on dividends under the US-India treaty), credit or exemption for tax already paid abroad, and reduced tax on NRO interest. Claiming it requires a Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) plus Form 10F filed with Indian tax authorities.

How does Indus Tax help NRIs with DTAA Consultation?

Our CA team handles NRI tax end-to-end: review of India-sourced income, DTAA benefit application, correct ITR form selection, Form 15CA/15CB for repatriation, and advance tax calculation. All services are 100% online — you don't need to visit India. We coordinate via WhatsApp and email across all time zones.

What are the TDS rates on NRI income from Indian sources?

NRI income attracts TDS at: 30% on rent, 15% on STCG (Section 111A), 10% on LTCG above ₹1.25 lakh (Section 112A), 30% on NRO interest, 20% on dividends (reducible under DTAA) — plus surcharge and 4% cess. You can reclaim excess TDS via ITR filing, or apply for a lower deduction certificate under Section 197 in advance.
