First, Im no tax expert, best to take advice from an accountant in your country of residence.
The way I read the Indian tax link, if your country of residence is listed in the table of countries that they have tax agreements with, then you will pay tax to your residence country rather than to India.
From the LinK:-
12.2.4 Income derived by rendering of professional services or other activities of independent character are taxable in the country of residence except when the person deriving income from such services has a fixed base in the other country from where such services are performed. Such income is also taxable in the source country if his stay exceeds 183 days in that financial year.
12.2.5 Income from dependent personal services i.e. from employment is taxed in the country of residence unless the employment is exercised in the other state. Even if the employment is exercised in any other state, the remuneration will be taxed in the country of residence if –
the recipient is present in the source State for a period not exceeding 183 days; and
the remuneration is paid by a person who is not a resident of that state; and
the remuneration is not borne by a permanent establishment or a fixed base.
Im sure its one of these rules. You musn’t spend more than 183 days in India either for them to apply.
