88. OCI Working in India

Q: Dear Mr. Chand, Your web site is really very useful. I have some questions. 01. I am OCI holder and before I took overseas citizenship I was Indian Citizen and was doing Income Tax Practice ( not as lawyer) in India . Now I am back in India and want to open an office restart my old practice . Can I do that as an OCI holder ? Please guide me on this . 02. If I can this , than do I required some registration . Please guide with which authority . Regards, Rawal A. If you are not applying to work for the Indian Government or run for political office you can do what ever work you like as long as it is legal and abides by the local, municipal, state and government laws applicable to the type of work you want to do. I am not sure what sort of licensing is required to practice taxation in India for those wanting to provide taxation consultancy etc. However since you are already in India and have previously worked in the same field you should be able to find the current rules regarding the services you wish to provide from a lawyer, perhaps a taxation lawyer. Sorry I can't be of more help.
