Taxability of NRI
Divya is working as a Technical Advisor (contract role) for Quintessence Technology as freelancer and receives a net salary of ?2,35,000 per month after 10% tax deduction in Malaysia. The salary is received in her Indian bank account, but she is NOT residing in India and qualifies as an NRI.
Whether this will fall under section 5 of Income tax act and same will be taxable on the basis of receipt if not what is the taxability as per section?
