 todays ipcc taxation paper is tough

paper is so difficult nd technical .........

s tax nd vat is so technical im nt happy wid this

very surprising to see a lot of questions on Service tax in PCC paper 

@ Vuele

How can he be RNOR in ans 1...?

Its given that "HE left india for the first time in search of employment".. So condition 2 of Section 6(1) wont apply to him.... Only cond 1 ll apply... However his stay is less than 180 dys.... 

Yes, he stayed less than 180days in PY but the 2nd condition is

(i) He must be in India 2yrs out of 10yrs in the previous years preceding years and must stay in PY atleast 60days.

AND

(ii) He must stay in India 730days in the 7preceding PY's 

So the above two conditions in 2nd Condition is satisfied, so I felt that he is Resident & Ordinarily Resident. 

Let me know am I correct or not ?
