NRI tax return filing

Hello,

1) I am an NRI with income in India only from interest on bank deposits and post office savings. Please let me know which return form I should fill in.

2) My spouse also a NRI has income from sale of House property along with interest on bank deposits and post office savings. Which return form should he fill in.

3)as income from NRE savings and NRE FD are tax free, in the return form do we need to show them?

Thank you and regards,

In case income is only from bank interest and post office interest, you can file income tax return using ITR1.
Your wife would need to file ITR2 as she has long/short term gains from house sale.
If you want to show non taxable interest in return, you can file using ITR2 and fill EI sheet in same.
