Many Indians working overseas and earning their salaries abroad have to pay due taxes in that foreign country, be it Singapore, or the United States of America (USA). In cases, where a salaried employee has already paid taxes there, India offers a foreign tax credit (FTC). To take advantage of this, you need to submit Form 67 as per Rule 128 of the Income Tax Rules, 1962. Although you must file Form 67 before the income tax return (ITR) filing deadline to receive the FTC, missing this deadline can lead to tax disputes. Some taxpayers have successfully contested these disputes in ITAT, but it's best to file Form 67 within the due date to secure the FTC credit in India and avoid double taxation.
