For Indian income-tax purposes, residential status is determined under the applicable income-tax law based on factors such as the individual's physical presence in India during the relevant period and, in specified cases, other statutory conditions.
Being an Indian citizen, holding an Indian passport or living abroad does not by itself determine tax residency.
The correct residential status must be established for the relevant financial/tax year before deciding the reporting requirements.
Possible categories can include:
The tax consequences can differ substantially between these categories.
Residential status can affect:
A common mistake is to start with the person's nationality rather than determining tax residency under the relevant law.
Depending on the taxpayer's status and facts, Indian taxation can involve income such as:
The tax treatment of foreign income can differ based on residential status and applicable provisions.
Interest on an NRO account is generally taxable in India, subject to the applicable law and treaty provisions.
TDS may be deducted by the bank. The actual tax position should be reconciled with Form 26AS/AIS.
Interest on qualifying NRE accounts can be exempt subject to the conditions under Indian law and the taxpayer's status.
Do not assume that every account described informally as "NRE" is automatically tax-free without checking the account type and eligibility.
Interest on qualifying FCNR deposits can have specific tax treatment subject to the statutory conditions.
The account type, residential status and applicable law should be reviewed before determining taxability.
NRIs earning rent from Indian property may have Indian income-tax obligations.
The computation can involve:
A rental-income case should not be treated as a simple "rent × tax rate" calculation.

NRIs can have Indian capital gains from transactions involving:
Capital-gains computation can depend on:
A broker or property transaction statement should be reconciled before filing.
An NRI selling Indian property may face:
The exact treatment depends on the property, acquisition history, sale value and applicable law.

TDS is common in NRI transactions.
Potential areas include:
A refund may arise where the total TDS exceeds the final Indian tax liability.
Before claiming a refund, reconcile:
Income → TDS deducted → TDS credited → Eligible deductions/exemptions → Final tax liability
NRIs should review their Indian tax statements before filing.
Check:
Review reported information such as:
Differences should be investigated rather than blindly copied into the return.
The correct ITR depends on income sources and the taxpayer's circumstances.
ITR-2 can be relevant for individuals/HUFs without business/professional income where the taxpayer has circumstances such as capital gains, foreign assets/income or other income that require the form.
ITR-3 can apply where the NRI has income from business or profession and the form's conditions are satisfied.
Important: ITR-1 is generally not the standard return for a non-resident individual. Form eligibility must be checked against the current year's notified ITR instructions.
India has Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements with various countries.
Where a treaty applies, the analysis may involve:
A treaty does not automatically eliminate Indian tax.
The taxpayer's eligibility and documentation should be reviewed for the specific income and country.
A non-resident's foreign income may have different Indian tax consequences from an Indian resident's foreign income.
Where foreign tax credit is relevant, the taxpayer may need:
Foreign tax credit should not be claimed merely because foreign tax was paid; the applicable Indian rules and documentation must be satisfied.
Foreign assets can require detailed reporting depending on the taxpayer's residential status and applicable ITR schedules.
Potential assets include:
The reporting requirement should be evaluated for the relevant taxpayer and year.
Review the taxpayer's stay in India and other relevant conditions for the year.
Map salary, rent, interest, capital gains, dividends and other Indian-source income.
Review overseas income and assets where relevant to the taxpayer's reporting obligations.
AIS, Form 26AS, TDS certificates and other supporting documents are reconciled.
Where a DTAA may apply, review residence country, TRC and relevant treaty provisions.
Determine the correct ITR form and required schedules.
Compute Indian taxable income, TDS/TCS, tax payments, deductions, capital gains and applicable credits.
The return is submitted electronically and the applicable verification process is completed.
Foreign salary is not automatically taxable in India merely because the individual is an Indian citizen.
Taxability depends on residential status, where services are performed, source rules and other applicable provisions.
A person working abroad should therefore not use an Indian salaried-return workflow without first determining tax residency and source.
NRIs with Indian business/professional income may require ITR-3 or another appropriate return depending on the facts.
Review may include:
Cross-border business cases should be reviewed individually.
Review Indian income alongside US tax residency, foreign tax credit and reporting considerations.
Review Indian-source income alongside UK tax residency and treaty provisions.
Review Indian-source income, UAE tax-residency documentation and relevant treaty provisions.
Review Indian income, Singapore tax-residency status and the applicable DTAA.
Country-specific treaty and foreign-tax-credit analysis may be required.
