RE:income tax filing
by Amitabh on May 04, 2007 07:19 AM

The question is - are you being doubly taxed for the same income - abroad as well as in India ? If that be the case,you can get the relief for the same in India when you file your return as per the double taxation avoidance agreement if any exists between india and that counrty,or as per the provisions of Sec 91.Bur Sec 91 allows relief only if you are an Indian resident in the relevant financial year and you have earned income abroad which has been taxed in the other country.As you are Indian resident,you will be taxed in India too for the same income so you can get credit in India of that tax paid abroad as per sec 91.For availing this relief you have to file your return for those years.
