Hi Manaoj,
Answers are given below:
a) Can I maintain my Infinity Futures account?
Yes. you can. But you can only invest in stocks - no speculation.
b) Can I withdraw my profits and get it transferred to India? Is there any legal issue.
No legal issues as long as there is no speculative income.
c) I will be paying taxes in US and can I get the double taxation benefit for Indian taxes. I will be paying more taxes in US compared to Indian taxes.
There is a double taxation treaty between India and US so you wont be taxed twice, but you will have to get exemption in US. i.e. declare W8BEN and dont pay taxes in US (if you plan to reside in India and dont have any US activities).
You income will be taxed when it enters India.
However its better if you consult an expert for second opinion.
Hope it helps
