Hello,

I was on long term deputation in US from Jan 2008 till Dec 2010.

For Indian FY-2010/11(Mar 2010 till Dec 2010), I have got Indian salary component in US only. And taxes for the same has also been paid in US.

From Jan 2011 till Mar 2011, I have got Indian salary in India. But my Form 16 is showing Full Annual salary for the whole financial yr and taxes have been also deduced on Full amount.

So in nutt shell, I have paid double taxes for Mar 2010 till dec 2010.

Please help in letting me know, how can I get back my extra deducted taxes while filing Indian Tax return.

Regards,
Sunny

Not sure HOW you can do it on the Indian tax return, but you should be able to claim the U.S. taxes paid as a credit on your Indian tax return.

Barring that, you can claim the Indian taxes paid on your U.S. tax return using Form 1116.
