Tax return/withholding tax filing assistance

If NRI/OCI/PIO is earning an income, which includes rental income, in India then it is mandatory to file the Income Tax Return (ITR) within the time limit. At present the ITR is required to be filed before July 31, every year. You will require Permanent Account Number (PAN) for filing ITR. ITR may be filed online by creating user ID at https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in

In the case of capital gains, it is mandatory to file income tax return even if the gains are below basic exemption limit of 2.5L during FY. If the TDS is deducted on capital gains and you are not claiming any refunds/set off against capital loss then you need not file income tax return. NRI can also file income tax return in India by giving Power of Attorney to Resident Indian Citizen.
