Residential Status of Individuals Who is a resident in India? An individual is said to be resident in India in any P.Y, if he Condition 1 Condition 2 is in India in that year for a period or periods amounting in all to 182 days or more ; OR is in India for a period or periods amounting in all to 60 days or more in that PY AND having within the 4 years preceding that PY been in India for a period or periods amounting in all to 365 days or more If an individual does not satisfy any of the above stated 2 conditions, he/she will be said to be a Non-resident. Special cases WHERE ONLY CONDITION IS APPLICABLE I. In the case of an individual, (a) being a citizen of India, o who leaves India in any previous year as a member of the crew of an Indian ship or for the purposes of employment outside India, o only condition (i) will be applicable; (b) being a citizen of India, or a person of Indian origin o who, being outside India, comes on a visit to India in any previous year, o only condition (i) will be applicable This case states about exclusion of no. of days, II. In the case of an individual, being a citizen of India, Member of Crew of foreign bound ship leaving India, o the period of stay in such Eligible voyage will be not considered while calculating above number of days B.COM(H), FCA, ISA, IFRS(DIPLOMA) Page 4

The period referred to in sub-rule (1) shall be the period beginning on the date entered into the Continuous Discharge Certificate in respect of joining the ship by the said individual for the eligible voyage and ending on the date entered into the Continuous Discharge Certificate in respect of signing off by that individual from the ship in respect of such voyage. Here, (a) "Continuous Discharge Certificate" shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Merchant Shipping (Continuous Discharge Certificate-cum-Seafarer's Identity Document) Rules, 2001 made under the Merchant Shipping Act, 1958 (44 of 1958); (b) "eligible voyage" shall mean a voyage undertaken by a ship engaged in the carriage of passengers or freight in international traffic where (i) for the voyage having originated from any port in India, has as its destination any port outside India; and (ii) for the voyage having originated from any port outside India, has as its destination.

(b) There may be chances that HUF is managed by member or co parceners, in that case we will not considered the place where the karta resides and issue directions. For e.g. A & Sons (HUF) is managed by the Mr.S, elder son of Mr.A who is Karta of A & Sons (HUF), due to his age factor.
