Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@girigiri , having read through the thread what I get is that you have  paid  US$xxx as taxes to India   on income US$YYYY for the  Indian Tax year  04/01/2022 through 03/31/2023 and that  you would like to ameliorate  the effects of double taxation per US/India Tax Treaty.  You are a US person  ( Citizen/ GreenCard/ Resident for Tax purposes ).

1. The first  item I would like to make sure that you have allocated  the  foreign  income  and the taxes paid i.e.  you have annualize the income and the  taxes levied/paid  from the Indian Tax year to   US Calendar year.

2. Really need  more details as to what   the foreign incomes were  i.e.  what was the allocated  incomes by category  -- interest , dividend and of course capital  gain

3. Once we have allocated in comes for the year , you can generally allocate the  taxes  ratiometrically i.e. a straight line  ( even though that may not be actually true  but  that is the best one can do  unless it is actually possible to show that the interest income was taxed at a different rate than the capital gain  for example.

 

As you can see from the above we need more info to be able to help you .   IRS is not looking for an airtight logic but consistent  logic and best effort to harmonize between different  tax  systems .

 

I will circle back once I hear from you 

 

Sorry for the delay in responding
