(If the said NRI is having any asset outside India, then better go for ITR 2

05 August 2016 Thank you sir.. He is not having any foreign asset. And if he has returned back to india to settle then also we will see only 182 days criteria of residential status as he went outside for employment and now came back.. 60 days criteria will not be applicable right na sir??
