First, when you post, do NOT post in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS! That denotes that you are SHOUTING!

Second, as a residnet alien of the United States, ALL world-wide income is subject to U.S. income taxes, which includes rental income in India. Article 6 of the U.S.-India Tax Treaty applies ONLY IF you are a non-resident alien.

Note that, with legitimate expenses associated with the rental, plus depreciation, there is a better-than-even chance that your rental "income" will in fact be a LOSS on your tax return.
