You are considered an Indian resident for a financial year if you satisfy any of the conditions below:
Note: If you are an Indian citizen working abroad or a crew member on an Indian ship, only the first condition is available to you – which means you are a resident when you spend at least 182 days in India.
The same applies to a Person of Indian Origin (PIO) who visits India. The second condition does not apply to these individuals. A PIO is a person whose parents or any of his grandparents were born in undivided India.
If you do not meet any of the above conditions, you are a Non-Resident Indian.
