New Tax Regime now DEFAULT for NRIs too (opt-out via Form 10IEA before ITR filing). Long-term capital gains regime overhauled by Finance Act 2024 â listed equity LTCG threshold âš1.25L (up from âš1L), LTCG rate now uniform 12.5% (down from 20% indexed for property/unlisted; up from 10% for listed equity). NO INDEXATION for any LTCG sale on/after 23 July 2024. Schedule FA enforcement stricter â CBDT crosscheck with CRS/FATCA data. PAN-Aadhaar linkage mandatory but NRIs without Aadhaar exempt with proper declaration. Form 67 for FTC must be filed BEFORE due date of return (not extended). DTAA TRC requirement enforced â Form 10F alone may not suffice for all benefits.
No vague timelines. Here's the actual phase-wise breakdown for NRI Income Tax Return Filing in Shamli.
CRITICAL first step under S.6 of IT Act. NRI test: (a) less than 182 days in India in FY, OR (b) less than 60 days in FY AND less than 365 days in preceding 4 FYs (60-day relaxed to 182 for Indian citizens going abroad for employment). NEW W.E.F. FY 2020-21: Indian citizen with India-source income >âš15L + not taxable elsewhere = deemed resident. RNOR (Resident but Not Ordinarily Resident) status checked. Wrong residency = wrong tax computation.
Indian-source income categorized: SALARY (services rendered in India), HOUSE PROPERTY (rental from Indian property â TDS 30% u/s 195 by tenant), CAPITAL GAINS (Indian shares/MFs/property â STCG 15%/30%, LTCG 12.5% on listed equity over âš1.25L, 20% on other LTCG with indexation), OTHER SOURCES (Indian bank interest â NRO interest fully taxable, NRE/FCNR exempt, Indian dividends taxable @ 20% post-2020). BUSINESS/PROFESSION (Indian operations only).
India-Resident Country DTAA reviewed. LOWER of Indian tax vs DTAA rate applied. Example: India-US DTAA dividend WHT 25% (vs Indian 20% â Indian rate prevails for residents in India's favour). Form 10F filed (self-declaration of DTAA eligibility). Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) from resident country preferred. Form 67 prepared for Foreign Tax Credit if tax paid in resident country on Indian income.
Documents: PAN (NRI PAN if no Aadhaar), passport copy showing days in India, NRE/NRO/FCNR statements, TDS certificates (Form 16/16A), capital gains statements (broker contract notes), rental receipts + tenant TDS, property documents, foreign bank statements for Schedule FA. Form 26AS reconciliation â every TDS captured must match return. AIS (Annual Information Statement) cross-verification.
ITR-2 (typical NRI) or ITR-3 (if Indian business) filed via incometax.gov.in. Schedule FA disclosure of ALL foreign assets/bank accounts/investments â MANDATORY regardless of value (Black Money Act penalty âš10L+ if missed). Schedule TR (foreign tax relief). E-verification via Aadhaar OTP / Net Banking / DSC. Refund credited to NRO account / overseas bank (if linked). Form 15CA/15CB if repatriating refund/funds abroad.
Most counsel quote one number. We show you what goes where, so there is nothing to discover later.
| Component | Amount | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Government e-filing fee | âš0 | FREE â incometax.gov.in portal |
| Professional fee â basic ITR-2 (NRO interest + rental only) | âš3,999 | Simple NRI return without capital gains |
| Professional fee â complex ITR-2/ITR-3 (capital gains + DTAA + Schedule FA) | âš7,999 â âš14,999 | Multiple income heads, DTAA optimization |
| Form 67 â Foreign Tax Credit preparation | âš2,000 | If claiming FTC for taxes paid abroad |
| Form 15CA/15CB â repatriation certification | âš3,500 â âš5,000 | CA-signed; per remittance |
| PAN application for NRI (Form 49AA, if needed) | âš1,099 | NSDL fee + processing |
| Late filing fee (S.234F, if applicable) | âš1,000 â âš5,000 | Government penalty for filing after 31 July / 31 December |
Total estimate from 3999 ¡ final fee depends on entity size, document readiness, and city-specific stamp duty (see local jurisdiction above).
From hundreds of engagements, here are the patterns that cause founders and businesses to come back to us in distress. Avoid these and you've already won 70% of the matter.
Counting days incorrectly. S.6 has strict day-count rules. Wrong status = wrong tax + scrutiny + revised returns + interest. Even partial day in India counts as full day. Maintain passport stamps record.
Tenants of NRI landlords MUST deduct 30% TDS u/s 195 (not 10% u/s 194I). Many tenants don't. NRI owner liable for full tax + interest. Must claim TDS deducted in ITR with proper TAN of deductor.
Filing mandatory if (a) total income exceeds basic exemption âš2.5L (old) or âš3L (new regime), OR (b) foreign assets held â Schedule FA mandatory even if no tax. Skipping filing for "no tax" reason can trigger Black Money Act notices.
NRIs cannot use ITR-1 (Sahaj). Use ITR-2 if only capital gains / house property / other sources. ITR-3 if any business/professional income in India. Wrong form = defective return notice.
DTAA rates often LOWER than Indian rates (e.g., royalty/FTS @ 10% under most DTAAs vs 20% in IT Act). Missing DTAA application = overpaying tax. File Form 10F + obtain TRC.
Foreign bank accounts, investments, immovable property MUST be disclosed in Schedule FA (regardless of value). Missing = Black Money Act penalty âš10L per asset + prosecution. Even single overseas brokerage account omission triggers.
NRE interest = TAX EXEMPT (S.10(4)(ii)). NRO interest = FULLY TAXABLE. FCNR interest = EXEMPT. Confusing the accounts in return = wrong tax. NRO TDS at 30% â claim refund through ITR if excess.
Indian broker deducts TDS @ 15% (STCG)/12.5% (LTCG equity)/20% (LTCG other). Must declare in CG schedule. Indexation NOT available for NRIs on equity LTCG (only for unlisted/property). LTCG on listed equity exempt up to âš1.25L/yr.
ITR after due date (31 July / 31 Oct for audit / 31 Dec for belated) = cannot carry forward capital losses to future years. House property loss carry forward also lost. File on time even if tax is zero.
