NRI Tax Filing in India
End-to-end Indian tax filing for Non-Resident Indians — residential status, India-sourced income, property-sale TDS, DTAA relief and lower-TDS certificates, all managed remotely.
NRI Tax Filing in India with EvoTax
Non-Resident Indians face some of the most complex tax situations: determining residential status, taxing only India-sourced income, navigating high TDS on property sales and rent, and avoiding double taxation through DTAA treaties. EvoTax provides specialised, fully-remote NRI tax services. We correctly determine your residential status under the Income Tax Act, file your Indian ITR for rent, capital gains, dividends and interest, reconcile and reclaim excess TDS, and apply DTAA benefits so you are not taxed twice. For property sales, we help reduce the heavy TDS through a lower-deduction certificate (Form 13) and plan capital gains exemptions. Everything is handled online across time zones, with secure document exchange.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do NRIs have to file an ITR in India?
NRIs must file an Indian ITR if their India-sourced income (rent, capital gains, interest, dividends) exceeds the basic exemption limit, or to claim a refund of excess TDS. Filing is also useful for repatriation and record-keeping. We assess your obligation and file accordingly.
How much TDS is deducted when an NRI sells property?
TDS on property sold by an NRI is deducted at a much higher rate than for residents (on the full sale value, plus surcharge and cess). You can reduce this by obtaining a lower-deduction certificate under Section 197 before the sale — a service we provide.
What is DTAA and how does it help?
A Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement between India and your country of residence ensures the same income is not taxed twice. Depending on the treaty, you claim relief either by exemption or by crediting tax paid in one country against the other. We apply the correct method using a Tax Residency Certificate.
Can NRIs claim a TDS refund?
Yes. NRIs frequently have TDS deducted far above their actual liability, especially on property and capital gains. Filing an ITR is how you claim the refund — we compute the real liability and reclaim the excess.
Can the entire process be done from abroad?
Absolutely. Our NRI service is fully remote — secure document upload, online consultations and e-filing — so you never need to be physically present in India.
