Interest on Non Resident External Account (NRE) and Foreign Currency Non-Resident Account (FCNR) [Section 10(4)(ii)] is exempt in the hands of a person who is a Person Resident outside India as per section 2(w) of FEMA, 1999 and defination of 'Non-Resident' under Income Tax is not relevant for this sub section.
