Form 15CA under Income Tax Act 

About Our Service

What is Form 15CA?   

Form 15CA is an online declaration that a person making a foreign payment submits to the Income Tax Department. It helps track payments made outside India and ensures compliance with Section 195 of the Income Tax Act. The form acts as a proof that tax has been deducted or is not required to be deducted before sending money abroad.

Whether it’s for NRI remittance, foreign investment, or technical service payments, filing Form 15CA is mandatory for most outward remittances. Incorrect filing may lead to penalties and compliance issues with banks or tax authorities.

 Who Needs to File Form 15CA?   

  • Any person making payments to a non-resident or foreign entity.

  • Businesses sending funds abroad for services, royalties, or consultancy.

  • Individuals or NRIs transferring money to foreign accounts.

  • Companies or start-ups investing or paying for overseas operations.

FAQ

FAQs on Form 15CA Online Filing   

Get answers to all your queries

  • What is Form 15CA used for?

    Form 15CA is a declaration filed before sending any taxable payment from India to a non-resident or foreign company. It reports the remittance details to the Income Tax Department and helps banks ensure tax compliance during outward remittances.

  • Who must file Form 15CA?

    Any person (individual, company, LLP, trust, etc.) responsible for remitting money to a non-resident or foreign company must file it, except in notified cases where filing isn’t required. The filing should happen prior to the actual remittance.

  • How is Form 15CA structured (Parts A, B, C, and D)?

    Form 15CA has four parts chosen based on taxability and the ₹5,00,000 threshold in a financial year: Part A (taxable, ≤ ₹5 lakh), Part B (taxable, > ₹5 lakh with AO order/certificate u/s 195(2)/(3)/197), Part C (taxable, > ₹5 lakh with Form 15CB), and Part D (not chargeable to tax). Selecting the correct part is essential for bank processing.

  • Is Form 15CB always required with Form 15CA?

    No. Form 15CB (CA certificate) is needed only when the remittance is chargeable to tax and the aggregate exceeds ₹5,00,000 in the financial year (unless you have an AO certificate). Otherwise, you may file the relevant 15CA part without 15CB.

  • When is Form 15CA not required at all?

    You need not furnish 15CA if the remittance is by an individual that does not require RBI prior approval, or if it falls under the specified nature list (Rule 37BB purpose codes such as certain import payments). Banks may still ask for basic proofs to confirm the exemption.

  • Do import payments always need Form 15CA?

    Not always. Many import-related remittances fall under the specified list under Rule 37BB where Forms 15CA/15CB are not required. Confirm the exact purpose code with your bank and CA before remitting.

  • How do I file Form 15CA online?

    Log in to the Income Tax e-Filing portal, choose Form 15CA, pick the correct part (A/B/C/D), enter remitter and remittee details, enter remittance information, then e-verify and submit. You may also use the offline utility.

  • Do I need a digital signature for Form 15CA?

    You can e-verify using DSC or EVC. If a DSC is registered on your profile, DSC is mandatory; otherwise, EVC works.

  • Can I revise or withdraw Form 15CA after filing?

    Yes. You can withdraw Form 15CA within 7 days of submission and then file a fresh one. After 7 days, you must file a new corrected form. Banks process remittances based on the latest valid form.

  • What happens if I skip Form 15CA?

    Banks may decline the remittance. Non-filing or incorrect filing may attract a penalty of up to ₹1,00,000 under Section 271-I.

  • What documents are needed to file Form 15CA correctly?

    Keep PAN, bank details, remittee details (name, country, address, tax ID), purpose code, agreement/invoice, and DTAA reference ready. If Part C applies, Form 15CB details are also required.

  • How do DTAA provisions impact Form 15CA/15CB?

    DTAA may reduce or remove tax on certain payments if conditions are met. Your CA applies the DTAA rate in Form 15CB, which you reference in Form 15CA.

  • Is Form 15CA needed for every installment under the same contract?

    Yes. Each outward remittance requires a separate Form 15CA, even if it relates to the same agreement.

  • Do NRIs themselves file Form 15CA?

    An NRI may file it if they have portal access, but usually the resident payer responsible for remitting money must file the form.

  • Which payments commonly require 15CA/15CB?

    Examples include payments for technical services, royalties, interest, commission, software, and design fees when chargeable to tax in India.

  • How long does filing usually take?

    If details are ready, filing and e-verification can be completed the same day. Obtaining 15CB may require additional time for verification and DTAA analysis.

  • What if I filed the wrong Part?

    Withdraw within 7 days and re-file correctly. If withdrawal is not possible, file a fresh correct 15CA and provide it to your bank.

  • Can I file Form 15CA without a CA?

    Yes, if 15CB is not required. For complex cross-border transactions, CA assistance is recommended.

  • What proof do I receive after filing?

    You receive a transaction ID, acknowledgement number, and email/SMS confirmation. Provide the acknowledgement to your bank.

  • Is offline preparation available?

    Yes. The Offline Utility for Statutory Forms allows preparing Form 15CA offline and uploading it later, helpful for frequent remitters.
