09 May 2021 Esteemed members,

I am employed in Saudi Arabia since 2019. Since 1st April in this FY, I am in India. My contract with my Saudi employer expires on 31 July 2021. Assuming that I travel to Saudi on 1st June 2021, my total stay in Saudi will only be 2 months. My question is that if I still remain outside of India somehow for another 4 months (in bits and pieces) without a foreign job, will I be considered as an NRI for 2021-22 FY? Many thanks in advance!

09 May 2021 In such a case you will be considered as NRI for FY 2021-22.

09 May 2021 Many thanks sir!!

18 May 2021 With or without job if you are out of India for more than 182 days during the financial year your will be considered as NRI.
