When conducting business, it’s common to make payments outside India, but certain compliance requirements must be followed, including deducting tax for any taxable sums under the Income Tax Act. This is done to gather information on payments subject to tax for NRI recipients. To meet these requirements, businesses need to file Form 15CA online via the Income Tax Department website.

• Form 15CA is a declaration made by the remitter of the payment, stating that they have deducted the tax from any payments made to a non-resident.
• It’s required to be filed by the remitter, whether it’s an individual or a foreign company, to gather information on tax chargeable payments.
• By filing Form 15CA, the Income Tax Department can track foreign remittances/payments and their taxability.
• As per Income Tax Rule 37BB, authorized banks or dealers must obtain such forms from a remitter. Additionally, businesses need to file Form 15CB accompanied by a certificate from an accountant in Form 15CB, along with Form 15CA.
