How do I determine my residential status?

You are considered an Indian resident for a financial year if you satisfy any of the conditions below:

1. When you are in India for at least 6 months (182 days to be exact) during the financial year
2. You have been in India for 2 months (60 days) in the previous year and have lived for one whole year (365 days) in the last four years.

If you do not meet any of the above conditions, you are a Non-Resident Indian.
