We are into Telecom software product and services business. Our Customer in Sri Lanka has recovered withholding tax. Can we take the tax credit of the withholding tax recovered by them against the income tax payable by us on our profits.
Govt of India has entered in agreement for avoidance of double taxation with 57 countries(ADT) sirlanka is also included in this 57....As per agreement income in chargeable in both countries...However the country of residence of the taxpayer allows him credit for the tax charged in other country....so u can adjust against income tax payable....
