Suppose you are an Indian resident making payments to a foreign entity or receiving payments from a foreign entity. In that case, it is mandatory to comply with the legal provisions of the Income Tax Act 1961. According to the Act, you must file Form 15CA and Form 15CB with the tax authorities before remitting funds to a foreign entity. Filing these 15 CA and CB Forms can be complex, requiring extensive knowledge of tax laws and regulations.

As per Section 195 of the Income Tax Act 1961, any individual or entity responsible for making payment to a non-resident, which includes a foreign company, must deduct income tax at the applicable rate prior to the payment being made.
The remitter must also submit an undertaking in Form 15 CA, which provides details of the payment being made to the non-resident. Furthermore, a certificate in Form 15CB, attested by a chartered accountant, is required for payments exceeding INR 5 lakh. This certificate provides details of the nature of the payment, the tax rate applied, and the amount of tax deducted.
