Dear Experts

I'd like to know if the money received as Corona Stimulus Economic Package from the US is taxable in India or not. Per the IRS it is tax free in the US. Schedule FSI doesnt have a relevant head to include this deposit under hence not included for many years.

Per the internet

Treated as a Non-Taxable Relief Grant (Not Income) -

Under the Indian Income-tax Act, a receipt is only taxable if it falls under the specific definition of "income" (such as salary, business profits, capital gains, or other regular streams).

The COVID-19 stimulus payment from the U.S. Treasury is a social benefit or disaster relief grant. It does not arise from any service rendered, employment, or investment activity in India, making it a capital receipt/personal relief aid rather than income.

Classified as a Government Aid -

In general tax principles, personal transfers or government aid given as financial relief do not qualify as taxable commercial or professional receipts.

Even though resident Indians are technically taxed on global income, statutory relief grants meant for public welfare do not possess the character of earned income or commercial revenue, meaning they are excluded from taxable computation under the Income Tax Department of India

Furthermore, the reason for asking this is because the user is interested in applying for the FAST-DS 2026 scheme.

1. The asset being declared under this scheme is a US bank a/c under Cat B (flat fee) route

2. The requiement for this bank a/c is 'Sum of ALL deposits'. The bank a/c was opened while NRI for salary

3. All the deposits in the users account was income that was taxed in the US. Upon becoming a resident, the US Treas deposited Corona Relief stimulus

4. Will this Corona stimulus be considered taxable or tax exempt during the FAST-DS 2026 filing

I am grateful for your expertise and response in advance

Sincerely

Mohan

My actual TDS amount is 9695 rupees. By mistake I paid amount 9635 rupees within due date (10th Nov 2025) through FORM 26QB. I shall pay now remaining amount 60 rupees. How should I fill up FORM 26QB so that I can say, I already paid 9635 rupees?

Dear Sir,

One of my client is facing issue with regard to Audit fees charged by the CA. At the time of finalizing the audit certain amount was agreed between my client and the CA and the same was shown in Books of Accounts and it was paid by my client. Now when the company is demanding NOC from the auditor then the auditor is saying audit fees is pending and is not ready to give NOC. The difference in Audit fees is huge with the one agreed between the company and now demanded by the CA.

Please help me how can the company remove the auditor in such a case without getting NOC from auditor.

Regards,
Divyesh Jain

Can I get clarification as to whether the Banks need to report interest details in Form 168 even if no TDS is deducted?
The present Form 168 has a separate table for reporting interest details when the customer submits Form 121. Moreover, the Banks earlier were reporting interest paid during the year in Q4 reporting, even when no TDS was deducted.
Thank you
Chari
