Deductions & credits

@taxfiler18 , for US purposes, if the transaction   ( the disposal of an asset ) took place in calendar year 2022, then you recognize the taxes accrued / paid   on your tax filing for the year 2022.   If the final amount  ( because I though India  collects the estimated tax at source ) is different than the amount withheld at source, then you may have to file an amended return to reconcile the difference.  I suspect though that in your particular case the final amount has been already settled  ( it is now  2023 October ).

 

Note though that because India uses an indexing scheme to adjust the basis of the asset, the gain  for Indian tax purposes may be very different  than that for the US ( there is no indexing of basis  in the US ).  For  form 1116  ( foreign tax credit ) you need to use the  US  gain as the foreign source income and the  Indian taxes levied/paid on that .

 

Does this make sense ?   Is there more I can do for you ?
