You think it will help me if i carry all these documents and question them if they ask me to pay duty. Because along with me and my wife if my wife is not considered "professional retuning to India" then at least she should get 35K which totally makes 75K for me + 35K for her.

Please correct me if i am wrong anywhere.
that makes sense....i really don't think you will have a problem but its a good idea to keep the bills....
