@Komal762 @Rahul Iyer @TechiWIZ I am a Certified Chartered Accountant and am already handling GST + Income tax of Indian instructors on Udemy income. I would like to reply on your post regarding GST & Income tax implications on income from Udemy income. GST is Applicable for interstate and Export services without any limit. For intrastate [within the same state] sales GST is not applicable until your turnover crosses the threshold. As you are providing service to Udemy US, you also have to apply for GST and do all the GST compliance throughout the year. However, you can apply for exemption from payment of GST as you are exporting the service out of India. However, you can claim an exemption from the export of service case by filing for LUT. But for that, you will need to get yourself registered under the GST. For Income Tax [withholding tax by Udemy from your income]: - Udemy deducts Tax from your royalty income. However, you can claim that withholding tax back while filing your Indian tax return as per the India - US tax treaty and accordingly reduce your indian income tax to that extent. Important Note: You may lose the FTC [Foreign Tax Credit] permanently for a particular year if you do not apply for a rebate before filing your ITR/Revised ITR and similar is also applicable for GST if you did not apply for GST exemption at the earliest. If you or anybody needs assistance or would like to know more about this topic on income tax return filing + Annual GST compliance for the income from Udemy US, you can have a one to one free on call consultancy with me and i I would be happy to solve each of your doubts.
