Taxation
Residential status, DTAA relief, TDS on NRO income and FATCA or CRS reporting — handled as one coordinated filing rather than five separate guesses.
Almost every NRI tax question traces back to one thing: your residential status under the Income Tax Act, which determines what India taxes at all. Get this wrong and every downstream filing — TDS, capital gains, DTAA relief — is built on a shaky foundation.
We determine your status each year, apply the relevant Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement, and coordinate with your accountant in your country of residence so nothing is taxed twice and nothing is missed.
Book a single session at the NRI Money Clinic instead of a full engagement — ideal if you have one specific decision to make.

Resident but Not Ordinarily Resident is a transitional status, typically applying for one to two years after returning to India, during which certain foreign income remains untaxed in India. Timing your return around it can matter significantly.
Interest on NRO accounts is subject to TDS at source, generally at a higher rate for NRIs unless a valid DTAA declaration and Tax Residency Certificate are on file with your bank.
Not always, but there are situations — certain capital gains, TDS refunds due, or specific asset holdings — where filing is still worthwhile even below the threshold.
If you hold financial accounts outside your country of tax residence, your bank may report account details under FATCA or CRS information-sharing agreements. We'll clarify what's reported and where.
