How Indian tax residency works
NRI: Fewer than 182 days in India in the current financial year (April–March). Only Indian-sourced income is taxable.
Resident: 182+ days in India, OR 60+ days AND 365+ days in the preceding 4 years. Global income is taxable — but DTAA treaties can prevent double taxation.
RNOR: A transitional status for returning NRIs — resident in the current year but NRI for 9 of the last 10 years. Foreign income stays largely exempt for 2–3 more years.
