  2. 2Confirm whether the person is an Indian citizen or PIO for the represented tests.
  3. 3Check the relevant DTAA article rather than assuming geographic proximity changes the tax rule.

Keep four records separate before you decide

  1. 1. India residence factsCount India days even where travel is frequent or informal.
  2. 2. Indian income and withholdingModel rent, interest, salary or gains separately from any amount already withheld in India.
  3. 3. Nepal evidenceKeep Nepal Inland Revenue Department records and the relevant NPR-to-INR conversion record with the transaction documents.
  4. 4. Treaty and bank documentsConfirm the applicable article, certificate, form and authorised-dealer requirements for the actual transaction date before remitting or claiming relief.
