Are you an NRI living in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, or anywhere abroad with income or assets in India? You may have tax filing obligations in India that you are unaware of, and the consequences of missing them are serious. At Obaid Khan & Associates, we specialise in NRI taxation, helping Indians abroad stay fully compliant with Indian tax laws while legally minimising their tax liability through DTAA benefits.
Our NRI tax services include:
ITR filing for NRIs with correct residential status determination
TDS refund claims on NRO interest and rental income
Capital gains computation on property and share sales in India
DTAA relief claims for income taxed in both India and abroad
15CA and 15CB certificates for remittance abroad
Advisory on RSUs, ESOPs, and foreign asset disclosure in Schedule FA
Repatriation of funds from India - NRO to NRE transfers
We also assist NRIs who hold foreign shares, RSUs, ESOPs, or mutual fund investments and are unsure of their reporting obligations in India. Many NRIs are surprised to learn that holding foreign assets above ₹50 lakh requires mandatory disclosure in Schedule FA of the ITR (Income tax Return), non-disclosure attracts penalties up to ₹10 lakh under the Black Money Act. We ensure your ITR is complete, accurate, and fully compliant.
The most common issue we see is NRIs not filing ITR at all. Assuming that because they live abroad they have no Indian tax obligation. This is incorrect. If you have rental income from property in India, interest income on your NRO account, capital gains from selling property or shares, or a pension from India, you are required to file an ITR in India. TDS is deducted at source on most of these incomes, but TDS deduction does not replace the ITR filing obligation. Many NRIs discover this only when they receive an income tax notice.
A second common mistake is not claiming DTAA benefits. India has Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements with over 90 countries including the US, UK, UAE, Canada, Australia, and Singapore. If you are paying tax on India-sourced income in your country of residence, you may be entitled to a credit or exemption in India, but only if you file correctly and claim it. Most unqualified tax preparers miss this entirely, resulting in NRIs paying tax twice on the same income.
We have assisted NRIs across the US, UK, UAE, Canada, and Australia with ITR filing, notice responses, DTAA claims, and property sale compliance.
