We offer comprehensive tax advisory services for NRIs and foreign nationals, ensuring optimal structuring of income, lawful compliance, and minimizing the risk of double taxation. Our team stays updated with DTAA (Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements), FEMA, and the latest CBDT circulars relevant to non-residents.

A key step in tax planning for NRIs is the residential status determination under the Income Tax Act, which affects global income taxability. We evaluate your stay, visa type, and employment status to assess your resident, RNOR, or non-resident classification.

We assist with filing income tax returns for income earned in India such as rent, capital gains from property, interest on NRO accounts, dividends, or business income. If applicable, we apply relevant DTAA benefits, ensuring TDS refund claims and avoiding tax on the same income abroad.

We also guide clients on repatriation of funds, investments in India (like equity, mutual funds, real estate), and FEMA/RBI compliance. We help avoid penal consequences by timely declaration of foreign income, assets, and bank accounts when needed under Schedule FA.

Expatriates working in India receive support for salary structuring, tax equalization, ESOP taxation, and perquisite valuation. We coordinate with overseas tax advisors when necessary to ensure global tax optimization and audit-readiness.
