Our aim is to make your financial operations seamless across borders while minimizing your tax liabilities.
Services We Offer:

NRIs earning above the prescribed exemption limit in India must file their income tax returns. This includes income from property, investments, and business profits. We help ensure timely filing to avoid penalties and optimize tax savings through strategic planning. - Capital Gains Tax Advisory
If you have sold assets like property or shares in India, you may be liable for capital gains tax. We guide you through the process of calculating long-term and short-term capital gains and help reduce your tax liability through available deductions. - Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAA)
For NRIs earning income both in India and abroad, DTAA can help avoid double taxation. We help you claim benefits under relevant tax treaties, ensuring that you pay taxes only once on the same income. - Repatriation of Funds

FAQs
Do NRIs have to file income tax returns in India?
Yes, NRIs must file income tax returns in India if their income exceeds the exemption limit. This includes income from property, investments, or business in India.
What is the benefit of DTAA for NRIs?
DTAA helps avoid double taxation on the same income in both India and your resident country. You can claim tax credits or exemptions under these agreements, reducing your overall tax liability.
Can NRIs repatriate money from India?
Yes, NRIs can repatriate up to USD 1 million per financial year after paying applicable taxes. We assist with the necessary documentation and compliance for smooth transfers.
What is the tax rate on capital gains for NRIs?
Long-term capital gains are taxed at 20%, while short-term capital gains are taxed based on your income tax slab. Indexation benefits are available for long-term gains on property sales.
What happens if I inherit property in India?
Inheritance is not taxed in India, but any income generated from the inherited property, such as rent or capital gains from a sale, is taxable. We help manage your tax obligations in such scenarios.
How is residential status determined for NRIs?
Your residential status is based on the number of days you spend in India during a financial year. If you spend 182 days or more, you are considered a resident for tax purposes. For NRIs, understanding residency is key to tax planning.
What are the tax implications for NRIs returning to India?
Returning NRIs are often classified as RNOR (Resident but Not Ordinarily Resident) for the first few years. This offers tax benefits, as you won’t be taxed on your foreign income during this period.
