If such Person have Indian resident address and Indian PAN then you can apply on the basis of both documents. Basically he is resident in India but went for studies.

I will suggest you to apply DIN as resident in India on the basis of Indian documents.

Affidavit will be required only when if you have any abbreviation of name of the applicant or his or father name, otherwise not required.

Thanks for your response.

Please have a look at the latest DIN-1 help file.

FYI

Affidavit by the applicant to be executed on non judicial stamp paper (Rs.10/-) and duly notarised . It is a mandatory attachment.

Other supporting documents like affidavit in case of single name etc. or any other information can be provided as an optional attachment.

AS PER FEMA - An Indian National, who went abroad for studies will be treated as NRI only, though he visits India for short stay. Now, he is in India.

Query

Should I say RESIDENT IN INDIA or NO ?

Ans : .................

Please reply.

I will again suggest you that if you have Indian documentary proof and PAN then you file DIN as Indian resident.
