Anyone has an idea on how taxes work if you're working remotely for a foreign (say US) company. Is it like you are taxed both from the US and India? For those who are working in such companies, it will be great if you can shed some light here.
I don't know a lot more about this, but there is a double taxation avoidance agreement between India and other foreign countries. This is in place so you don't have to pay double taxes in 2 countries.
Ideally a certain amount of your salary will be withheld by US (withholding tax i think) as their tax. The remaining salary will be credited into your account as it is without any more deductions. Now, when you file ITR in India, you can show the withholding tax as your tax paid (Don't know the specifics) and be except from any other additional taxes.

If you are working as a consultant, you will need to evaluate GST registration & return filing requirements in India.

My understanding of tax is as good as that of a middle schooler. The question is obvious, for someone who can't levy HRA, LTA or anything else, how do I pay less taxes?
All I can levy, I think is tax free investments up to 1.5lac.
