Yes. Refer Section 6(4) and 6(6) of the ITA.  It says any person......that means, as long as the entity qualifies as a person in the ITA Section 2 definition, it can be decided that it is a Resident/Non-Resident by virtue of Section 6.

Thanks..
But sir section 6 of ITA specifies only whether a person is resident or not but doesn't define what is Non
(continued)....But what is Non-Resident Indian

If a person is does not fulfill requirement of being a "resident" as per Section 6(4), in my view, it can be inferred that it is a "Non Resident"
