Where our NRI clients live
UAE
The UAE does not tax individuals on salary, but income that arises in India, such as rent, interest and capital gains, is still taxable in India.
Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia does not levy personal income tax on salaries, so Indian income is usually the only tax return an NRI there files.
Qatar
Qatar does not tax individuals on employment income; Indian rent, interest and capital gains are taxed in India.
Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain
Gulf NRIs in Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain typically pay no salary tax locally, but must report Indian income in India.
Singapore
Singapore taxes residents on income earned in Singapore; Indian income is taxed in India, with treaty relief where both countries tax it.
United States
US citizens and residents are taxed on worldwide income, so Indian income is reported in both countries, with foreign tax credit to avoid double tax.
United Kingdom
UK residents generally report foreign income to HMRC; India taxes income arising in India, and the treaty decides where credit is given.
Canada and Australia
Canada and Australia tax residents on worldwide income; Indian income is taxed in India too, with treaty relief.

Questions
Can NRIs claim back TDS deducted in India?
Yes. TDS on NRI income is often deducted at a higher rate than the actual tax. Filing a return claims the excess as a refund.
Can calls be scheduled in my time zone?
Yes. NRI consultations are shown in your local time and held on Google Meet, with early-morning and evening IST slots for the Gulf, Singapore and the US.
How much can an NRI repatriate from an NRO account?
Up to USD 1 million per financial year, after applicable taxes are paid.
Should I apply for a lower TDS certificate before selling property?
Usually yes. Buyers must otherwise deduct TDS on the full sale consideration at NRI rates, which is often far more than the tax actually due on the gain.
