 NRIs stuck in India as a result of the COVID-19 travel restrictions had double taxation worries that were recently addressed by the government of India. Authorities have asked such non-residents who faced double taxation in the due course of their stay in India to submit the relevant information by the end of March. As a result of the Double Tax Avoidance Agreement (DTAA), “there shouldn’t be any situation under which the individual taxpayer would be under a hardship of having double taxation in two countries due to the Covid-19 situation” iterates Nishit Parikh, the partner, direct tax and regulatory services at Sudit K. Parekh & Co, a Mumbai-based chartered accountants firm.

Long Term Capital Gain Tax on Sale of Property in India

 If you are planning to sell a property in India, you must be aware of tax implications on the gain arising from the sale of such assets. Tax liability on these assets depends on the duration for which the property was held by the seller and is calculated under the head ‘Capital Gains’. Capital gains are classified into two categories - long-term capital gains and short-term capital gains. For example, you will have to pay long term capital gain tax on sale of property held for more than 2 years.
