How to use Tax Refund Calculator
Reconcile supported annual tax with eligible Indian tax credits for ROR, RNOR or NR.
Inputs and definitions
Annual income facts, verified ROR/RNOR/NR status, supported foreign-income amounts, eligible Indian TDS/TCS, advance tax and self-assessment tax for the same period.
Method and formula
Compute the supported Indian annual liability for the selected status and compare it with eligible Indian credits entered. Excess credits suggest a refund; a shortfall suggests tax still payable. Foreign tax credits and treaty relief are excluded.
Illustrative example
₹95,000 eligible credits minus ₹80,000 liability suggests ₹15,000 excess credit. Actual refund depends on the final return and departmental processing.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Before you use the result.
Is the displayed refund guaranteed?
No. It is a reconciliation of the supported estimated liability and eligible credits you enter. The filed return, official credit records, processing adjustments, interest and outstanding demands can affect the amount finally issued.
Should I include every TDS amount visible in my records?
Include only credits that are legally attributable to the same taxpayer and period and are available to claim. Reconcile Form 26AS, AIS and certificates; a displayed item can still need correction or different-year treatment.
Can excess tax paid replace an income computation?
No. First complete the income, deduction and tax calculation, then reconcile eligible payments. A credit balance does not show whether every income item or special rate has been included.

Scope and limitations
The annual income calculation follows the selected residential status and supported foreign-income scope. Foreign tax credits and treaty relief are excluded. A refund depends on the final return, eligible Indian credits and departmental processing; it is never guaranteed.
These examples explain the method. The interactive result depends on the selected facts and period, and is not a filing or an eligibility confirmation.
