Taxation for Non-Resident Indians (NRIs)
It is often observed that while foreign companies have expert consultants for their tax-related matters, many NRIs are not fully aware of even basic provisions. This lack of awareness can lead to unnecessary penalties or missed opportunities for significant benefits. For example, under the DTAA between India and the UK (and many other countries), dependent personal services are taxed only in the country where the individual is employed, not where they reside. This creates opportunities for legal income planning. Without this knowledge, one might end up paying taxes in both countries.
As an example, many NRIs, even after living abroad for years, are unaware that Fixed Deposits (FDs) in India under an NRE account are fully tax-exempt. Ironically, instead of capitalizing on this tax-exemption available exclusively to NRIs, many invest in other high-risk instruments that offer marginally higher returns but are subject to tax.
Our expert team can help you plan your tax strategy, ensuring you leverage the best options available to you.
