Have a US 401(k)? Indians must report withdrawals and maturity details in ITR schedules FSI and FA

Indian taxpayers with US 401(k) accounts must now report withdrawals and maturity details in ITR schedules FSI and FA. Failure to disclose can lead to tax issues. Filing Form 40 is crucial for deferring Indian tax until withdrawal, aligning with US taxation and potentially enabling Foreign Tax Credit benefits. New ITR forms require filing ITR-2 or ITR-3 for these disclosures.
