About India Tax Desk for NRIs in the UK
A clear overview, in simple terms — what it is, why it matters, and how we handle it.
UK residents are taxed on worldwide income, so Indian rent, interest and capital gains go on the UK Self Assessment return (tax year 6 April–5 April, filed by 31 January) with credit for Indian tax paid. From 6 April 2025 the UK abolished the remittance basis for non-doms and introduced a four-year foreign income and gains (FIG) regime for new arrivals who weren't UK resident in the previous ten years. In India, an NRI is taxed only on Indian income.
The April–March Indian year and April–April UK year overlap, so income and credits must be apportioned carefully. Recent arrivals in the UK should check whether the FIG regime exempts their Indian income for the first four years.
We prepare the Indian return and the figures your UK adviser needs, and advise on residency in the year of moving.
