Deductions & credits

If you did not pay any taxes to India on the $200K, you do not enter $60,000 foreign taxes on your US return.  

 

If you are a US citizen or resident, you are required to report worldwide income including your Indian Fixed Deposit interest income on your Form 1040.  However, you only qualify to claim a foreign tax credit if you pay taxes to both the India and US governments.
