Chapter 7 of the NRI Tax Blueprint, condensed for the web. The day-counts, the timing, and the three mistakes that cost the average returning NRI between ₹15 and ₹40 lakh.
Read the framework→Residency under Section 6, the right ITR form, the 31 July due date, and how to claim DTAA relief with a TRC and Form 10F.
One reference table — salary, rent, capital gains, NRO interest and dividends — with the Section 195 TDS rate on each.
Account by account, asset by asset — NRE/FCNR exempt, NRO at 30%, equity at 12.5%/20%, debt funds now at slab.
Form 67, the TRC, and the small filing details that decide whether the credit actually flows.
When to file, what evidence the AO wants, and how to align the certificate with your conveyance date.
Which account holds what, who pays which tax, and how repatriation actually flows out of each.
Wire routing, FIRC capture, FC-GPR within 30 days, and the valuation report you must commission first.
How the US-India DTAA, your RNOR status and your withdrawal timing combine to set your effective tax rate.
What to do in the first 90 days after inheritance — and what waits until you're ready to sell.
