About the NRI 183-Day Rule
Under the Indian Income Tax Act (Section 6), a person is considered a Resident of India for a financial year if they were present in India for 182 days or more during that year. If present for fewer days, they are classified as a Non-Resident Indian (NRI). RNOR (Resident but Not Ordinarily Resident) status applies under additional conditions — consult a CA for specifics.
