Regarding Income Tax for NRIs employed in UAE

This query is : Resolved 

02 February 2020 Dear Team

In the recent change in the budget in Section 6, the period for being considered NRI has changed from 182 to 120 days in Clause (b) of Explanation 1 in Section 6. However, does the change also apply to Explanation 1, Clause (a)?

To describe my situation, I am currently employed in UAE (I have a Resident Visa sponsored by the employer). I typically travel to India on the weekends to visit my family and hence I am typically ~ 160-170 days in India. Will this change in the number of days be applicable to me also given that I am governed by Clause (a) of Explanation 1 and not Clause (b) of Explanation 1?

Thank you very much in advance for your support.

Regards,
Siddharth

02 February 2020 Yes you are governed by clause (a) of explanation 1 your UAE income will not be taxable in India as you are resident of UAE.
