π Resident or π NRI? Know Your Tax Status!
Published
Do you know your residential status as per the Income Tax Act? Itβs important because your tax liability in India depends on whether you are a Resident or a Non-Resident (NRI).
π You are a Resident in India if:
β Stayed in India for 182 days or more during the financial year, OR
β Stayed in India for 60 days or more in that year + 365 days or more in the last 4 years.
π You are an NRI if: β Stayed in India for less than 182 days in the financial year.
π In short:
182 days or more = Resident π
Less than 182 days = NRI π
