Form 15CA / 15CB

Preparation & Filing of Form 15CA / CB

Any person making a remittance outside India — whether a rent payer, a property buyer, or a business — must submit Form 15CA (an undertaking by the remitter) and, in most cases, Form 15CB (a CA certificate certifying that taxes have been deducted at the applicable rate). We prepare both documents accurately, determine DTAA applicability, verify TDS rates, and file Form 15CA on the income tax portal before the bank processes the wire transfer.

Repatriation Advisory

Advisory on Repatriation to Foreign Bank Accounts

NRIs can repatriate funds held in NRO accounts up to USD 1 million per financial year, subject to tax compliance and RBI documentation requirements. We advise on the permissible limits, the correct account routing (NRO to NRE or direct foreign remittance), the documentation required by the authorised dealer bank, and the sequence in which taxes and compliances must be settled before the transfer is initiated.

Form 13 — Lower / Nil TDS

Lower / Nil TDS Certificate for NRI Property Sellers

When an NRI sells immovable property in India, the buyer is required to deduct TDS at 20% (LTCG) or 30% (STCG) on the entire sale consideration under Section 195 — even before the actual tax liability is computed. This results in a significant cash blockage for the NRI seller. Form 13 allows NRIs to apply to the Assessing Officer for a certificate authorising the buyer or tenant to deduct TDS at a lower rate — or at nil — matching the actual tax liability rather than the gross rate. We prepare and file the application, compute the actual liability, and follow up until the certificate is issued.

Bank Coordination

Bank Coordination for RBI & FEMA Compliance

Authorised dealer banks require a complete documentation package before releasing an outward remittance — including Form 15CA/CB, ITR acknowledgements, source of funds declarations, and in some cases a CA or auditor certificate under FEMA. Gaps in documentation cause delays, rejection of transfers, or flags under RBI's reporting framework. We liaise directly with the bank's FEMA desk, prepare all compliance declarations, and ensure the remittance is cleared without unnecessary delays.

Transaction & Tax Review

We assess the nature of the remittance, applicable tax provisions, DTAA benefits, and determine the correct 15CA part and whether a 15CB or Form 13 is required.

2

TDS Computation & Certification

Actual tax liability is computed. Form 15CB is issued as a CA certificate certifying the applicable TDS rate, DTAA position, and remittable amount after deduction.
