The answer depends on your immigration status. If you have Green card or a US Citizen then - yes - you have to show the amount in India as income and pay tax. If you're on H1B or other temporary visas - the law is ambiguous and you can get away without disclosing your India income. Please consult a tax attorney or CPA to be 100% sure.
