14 July 2022 For RNRO all the foreign income accrued or earned is not taxable in India. Here it is income earned by employee through WFH in India. Though salary is credited to foreign bank account, but it would be called to be earned in India. So, it will be taxable in India, with rebate of taxes paid in foreign country as per applicable DTAA.

14 July 2022 Thank you Sir.
A small further clarification that client is of view that since he is been employed by foreign company where he is also resident of that country and paying taxes , can't he take an exemption that income is been accrued outside India?
