Income tax on my online drop-shipping business (India)
Please consult a tax advisor.   You may be voilating the FEMA [Foreign Exchange Management Act] and can land into trouble.  Further what you are doing can land up into various other acts as illegal including AML.   Further if there is income generated by Indian citizen in India, he is still liable to pay tax, irrespective of whether you get the funds back into India. Edit: AML is Anti Money Laundering. Your transaction is sure to raise AML triggers as it looks like converting Black Money to White in round about way. Once the triggers are raised, RBI division will investigate further to verify what you are doing. If you are able to prove that this is a valid transaction, you would be OK on AML front. How will Income Tax Know? - If they don't know does not mean you are not liable for tax. - Any suspicious transactions would get investigated and sooner or later Income Tax would know about it and can cause a serious problem. - It is irrelevant where you have kept the money, if you have earned something, its taxable. For it not to be taxable you need to conduct this business differently.  Please consult a tax adviser who will advice you on the tax-ability of this type of transaction.
