Article 23 prescribes reciprocal methods for avoidance of double taxation: India allows deductions from Indian tax for Japanese tax paid on income taxable in Japan, including sequencing against corporate surtax, and may include Japan-only taxable income in its tax base while deducting the tax attributable to that income. Japan, subject to its laws on foreign tax credits, allows residents a credit for Indian tax paid on income taxable in India, with special credit treatment for dividends received by qualifying resident companies that reflect Indian tax paid by the paying company.
