Living in Maldives doesn't end your Indian tax position: rent, interest, capital gains and other income earned in India is taxed in India, and may need an Indian return even when tax has been deducted.
Where India has a tax treaty (DTAA) with your country of residence, treaty rates apply once you give a Tax Residency Certificate and Form 10F. We check whether a treaty covers your income and which relief route applies.
