Q.1 Mr. Sarthak, an individual and Indian citizen living abroad (Dubai), a tax haven, since
year 2005 and never came to India for a single day since then, earned the following
incomes during previous year 2023-24 :
Particulars Amount (in `)
(i) Income accrued and arisen in Dubai not taxable in 20,00,000
Dubai (being tax haven)
(ii) Income accrued and arisen in India 5,00,000
(iii) Income deemed to accrue and arise in India 8,00,000
(iv) Income arising in Dubai from a profession set up in 10,00,000
India
I. Determine the residential status of Mr. Sarthak and taxable income for the
previous year 2023-24 (assuming no other income arise during the previous year).
II. What would be your answer if income arising in Dubai from a profession set up
in India is ` 2 lakhs instead of ` 10 lakhs?
III. What would be your answer, if Mr. Sarthak born in Dubai and his parents were
born in India? (PYP NOV 2022)

Sol. : 1
Mr. Sarthak is an Indian citizen living in Dubai since 2005 who never came to India for
a single day since then, he would not be a resident in India for the P.Y. 2023 -24 on the
basis of number of days of his stay in India as per section 6(1).
However, since he is an Indian citizen
- having total income (excluding income from foreign sources) of ` 23 lakhs, which
exceeds the threshold of ` 15 lakhs during the previous year; and
- not liable to tax in Dubai,
he would be deemed resident in India for the P.Y. 2023-24 by virtue of section 6(1A).
A deemed resident is always a resident but not ordinarily resident in India (RNOR).

Computation of Total Income for A.Y.2024-25


Particulars `
(i) Income accrued and arisen in Dubai (not taxable in case -
of an RNOR)
(ii) Income accrued and arisen in India (taxable) 5,00,000
(iii) Income deemed to accrue or arise in India (taxable) 8,00,000
CA Jasmeet Singh Arora 2

(iv) Income arising in Dubai from a profession set up in


India would be taxable in case of RNOR 10,00,000
Total income 23,00,000
II. If income arising in Dubai from a profession set up in India is ` 2 lakhs instead of ` 10
lakhs, his total income (excluding income from foreign sources) would be only 15 lakhs.
Since the same does not exceed the threshold limit of ` 15 lakhs, he would not be
deemed resident. Accordingly, he would be non-resident in India for the P.Y. 2023-24
and hence, his total income would be only ` 13 lakhs (aggregate of (ii) and (iii) above
i.e., ` 5 lakhs + ` 8 lakhs).
III. If Mr. Sarthak is born in Dubai and his parents were born in India, he would not be an
Indian citizen, but he may qualify as person of Indian origin. In such case, the provisions
relating to deemed resident would not apply to him.
Accordingly, he would be non-resident in India during the P.Y. 2023-24 and his total
income would be `13 lakhs.

Particulars `
Income from salary earned and received in UAE (income from a -
foreign source, hence, to be excluded)
Income earned and received from a house property situated in -
UAE (income from a foreign source, hence, to be excluded)
Income deemed to accrue or arise in India 5,00,000

Less: Deduction u/s 80C (LIC premium paid by cheque in India) – 1,50,000
Assuming other conditions are fulfilled
Total income (excluding income from foreign sources) 16,50,000
Mrs. Shruti, an Indian citizen visiting India in the P.Y.2023-24 , would be a
resident in India for A.Y.2024-25, if she satisfies either of the following
conditions -
(i) She is in India for 182 days or more during the P.Y.2023-24 or
(ii) She is in India for a period of 120 days or more during the P.Y.2023-24 and
her stay in India in the four immediately preceding previous years is 365
days or more.
[This condition will apply to her since she comes on a visit to India during
the previous year 2023-24 and her total income (excluding income from
foreign sources) is ` 16.50 lakhs, which exceeds the threshold of ` 15 lakhs]
This first condition is not satisfied since she is in India only for 157 days during the
P.Y.2023-24.
The second condition is satisfied, since she has stayed in India for 157 days during
the P.Y.2023-24 and 421 days in the four immediately preceding previous years.
Since she has become resident in India for A.Y.2024-25 by satisfying this
condition, by default, she
would be treated as resident but not ordinarily resident.
Conclusion – Mrs. Shruti’s residential status for A.Y.2024-25 is resident but not
ordinarily resident.
CA Jasmeet Singh Arora 4

Note – The provisions of section 6(1A) deeming an Indian citizen to be a resident but
not ordinarily resident, irrespective of the period of her stay in India in the relevant
previous year, if she is not liable to tax in any other country would not apply to Shruti,
since she is a resident as per the provisions of section 6(1).

Q. 3 Mr. Jai Chand (an Indian citizen) left India for employment in country X on 5thJune,
2015. He regularly visited India and stayed for 60 days in every previous year since then.
However, in the financial year 2023-24, he did not come to India at all. He owns a
commercial building in Delhi which is let out. He has also set a retail store in India which
is controlled by his brother from India. He provides the following information to you
regarding his income for the financial year 2023-24:
Income from commercial building in Delhi - ` 12,00,000 (computed as per the provisions
of the Act).
Income from the retail store - ` 4,50,000 (computed as per the provisions of the Act)
Country X does not tax any individual on their income as there is no personal income-
tax regime there.
Determine the residential status of Mr. Jai Chand for the Assessment year 2024-25.
Will your answer change if he is a citizen of Country X? (PYP MAY 23)

Sol. : 3
Determination of residential status of Mr. Jai Chand for A.Y. 2024-25
Since Mr. Jai Chand, an Indian citizen employed in Country X, did not come to India at
all during the P.Y. 2023-24, he would not be a resident for A.Y.2024-25 as per section
6(1).
However, since he is an Indian citizen
- having total income (excluding income from foreign sources) of ` 16,50,000 [`
12,00,000, being income from commercial building in India + ` 4,50,000, being
Income from retail store in India], which exceeds the threshold of ` 15 lakhs
during the previous year; and
- not liable to tax in Country X, he would be deemed resident in India for the P.Y.
2023-24.
A deemed resident is always a resident but not ordinarily resident in India (RNOR).
Yes, in case Mr. Jai Chand is a citizen of Country X, he would be non-resident in India
for the P.Y. 2023-24, since the provisions of deemed resident are applicable only to an
Indian citizen

India - ` 2,00,000
Find out the residential status of Mr. Prashant and compute his total income for
Assessment Year 2024-25. (PYP MAY 2023)

Sol. : 4
Determination of Residential Status of Mr. Prashant
Mr. Prashant is an Australian citizen who comes on a visit to India for 125 days in every
financial year since the past 11 years. During the P.Y. 2023 -24, he visited India for 200
days. Since he stayed in India for 182 days or more during the P.Y. 2023-24, he would be
resident in India for the A.Y. 2024-25.
An individual is said to be “Resident and ordinarily resident [ROR]” in India in any
previous year, if he satisfies both the following conditions:
- He is a resident in at least 2 out of 10 previous years preceding the relevant
previous year; and
- His stay in India in the last 7 years preceding the relevant previous year is 730 days
or more [Refer Note 1 below for alternate presentation]

- First condition
- Residential status for P.Y.2022-23 (A.Y.2023-24) – Resident, since he has stayed in
India for ≥ 60 days (125 days) in the said P.Y. and ≥ 365 days ( 500 days, being 125
days x 4) in the four immediately preceding PYs.

- Residential status for P.Y.2021-22 (A.Y.2022-23) – Resident, since he has stayed in


India for ≥ 60 days (125 days) in the said P.Y. and ≥ 365 days ( 500 days, being 125
days x 4) in the four immediately preceding PYs.
- Therefore, he satisfies the first condition of being resident in India in atleast 2 out
of 10 previous years preceding the relevant P.Y
Second condition
Stay in India in 7 immediately preceding PYs = 7 x 125 days = 875 days > 730 days
CA Jasmeet Singh Arora 6

Since both the conditions are satisfied, he is Resident and Ordinarily Resident (ROR).
In case of ROR, global income would be taxable in India. Accordingly, his total income
for A.Y. 2024-25 would as follows:

(1) Interest on England Development Bonds (1/3 20,000 20,000
received in India), amount of ` 20,000 being

both RNOR and non-resident.
CA Jasmeet Singh Arora 7

(2) Interest received from non-resident against 5,000 5,000


a loan given to him to run a business in India
would be deemed to accrue or arise in India.
Thus, such interest is taxable in case of both
RNOR and non- resident
(3) Royalty received from Akhil, a resident for - -
technical services given to run a business
outside India would not be deemed to
accrue or arise in India, since such services
are utilised for business carried outside
India. Thus, royalty would not be taxable in
case of both RNOR and non-resident.
(4) Income from business in Sri Lanka of 25,000 15,000
` 25,000 out of which ` 15,000 were received

business is controlled from India. However,
in case of non-resident only the amount
received in India would be taxable.
Taxable Income 50,000 40,000

Mr. Ram is an American citizen who comes on a visit to India during the P.Y. 2023-24
for 3 months. He has been in India from 1st May 2021 to 1st October 2022 . Since Mr.
Ram has been in India for a period of more than 60 days (i.e., 92 days) during the P.Y.
2023-24 and for a period of more than 365 days (i.e., 519 days) during the 4 immediately
preceding previous years, he satisfies one of the basic conditions and he is a resident
for the A.Y. 2024-25.
Since his period of stay in India during the preceding 7 previous years is less than 730
days (i.e., 519 days), he is a resident but not-ordinarily resident in India during the A.Y.
2024-25 .
Since Mr. Ram is a resident but not-ordinarily resident, income which accrues or arises
in India, deemed to accrue or arises in India, received in India, deemed to be received

Mrs. Asha is an Indian citizen who comes on a visit to India during the P.Y. 2023 -24 for
3 months i.e., 92 days. Since she does not satisfy any of the basic conditions of staying
in India for 182 days or 120 days during the P.Y. 2023-24, she is not a resident in India as
per section 6(1).
Mrs. Asha would be a deemed resident under section 6(1A) if her total income other
than the income from foreign sources exceeds ` 15 lakhs during the P.Y. 2023-24 as she
is an Indian citizen and is not liable to tax in Dubai.

Note 1 - Income from “Salaries” payable by the Government to a citizen of India for
services rendered outside India is deemed to accrue or arise in India as per section
9(1)(iii). Standard deduction under section 16(ia) is allowable, irrespective of
residential status.
Note 2 – In case of a non-resident, only income received or deemed to be received in
India and income accruing or arising or deemed to accrue or arise in India is chargeable
to tax. However, in case of a resident but not ordinarily resident, income derived from
a business controlled in or profession set up in India is also taxable even though it
accrues or arises outside India.
Therefore, income referred to in S. No. 1, 2 and 3 are taxable in the hands of Mrs. Roma
in both cases if she is a resident but not ordinarily resident or if she is a non-resident.
Loss from business carried on in Canada, unabsorbed depreciation of business in
Canada and Profit from Indonesia business would be fully chargeable to tax in India if
she is a resident but not ordinarily resident as it derived from a business controlled in
India. However, Profit from Indonesia business is taxable in case of non-resident to the
extent of such profits received in India.

A.Y. 2024-25 (RTP NOV 2022)

Sol. : 3
As per section 6(1), an Indian citizen or a person of Indian origin who, being outside
India, comes on a visit to India would be resident in India if he or she stays in India for
a period of 182 days or more during the relevant previous year in case such person has
total income, other than the income from foreign sources, not exceeding ` 15 lakhs.
However, if such person has total income, other than the income from foreign sources,
exceeding ` 15 lakhs, he would also be a resident if he has been in India for at least 120
days during the relevant previous year and has been in India during the 4 years
immediately preceding the previous year for a total period of 365 days or more. In such
a case, he would be resident but not ordinarily resident in India.
Income from foreign sources means income which accrues or arises outside India
(except income derived from a business controlled in or a profession set up in India)
and which is not deemed to accrue or arise in India.
In this case, total income, other than the income from foreign sources, of Mr. Dhanush

Since, Mr. Dhanush is an Indian citizen who comes on a visit to India only for 121 days
in the P.Y. 2023-24 and his total income, other than income from foreign sources does
not exceed ` 15 lakhs, he would be non-resident for the A.Y. 2024-25 .
A non-resident is chargeable to tax in respect of income received or deemed to receive
in India and income which accrues or arises or is deemed to accrue or arise to him in
India. Accordingly, his total income would be as follow –
