Dear Friends
I have a query regarding NRI clubbing.
Husband and wife both are NRI. Husband transfer some fund to his wife (Thru NRE, NRO a\c) and then wife make a Fixed deposit in Bank. Bank give interest and TDS was done on wife PAN No.
So, Interest Income of wife clubbed with husband income or not ?? (keep in mind, both are NRI)
if yes then how we can take credit of TDS in hands of Husband.

According to me, the clubbing provision would be attracted. As per Section 64 of the Indian Income Tax Act, any income arising from assets gifted to spouse is to be taxed in the donor spouse's hands.NRE accounts are in Indian banks and hence subject to Indian jurisdiction.
The tax law in India specifically exempts interest from NRE accounts from tax. But this doesn't mean that other tax provisions are not applicable to the same.
The only way this clubbing provision can be circumvented is by transferring funds to the spouse abroad. Then the wife can send money to her NRE account here in India. In such cases, though the credit to the NRE account has been received from funds sourced from the husband, since such transfer had taken place abroad, Indian law will not be applicable.

In my opinion, this is not a good tax planning advice.
How wife can prove about source of income when IT proceedings initiated??
Here, Wife should file NIL return of income and claim the refund while Husband will show this income under clubbing provision.
Expecting others opinion as well.
