Dear Sir

CASE

I returned to India in Jan. 2021 due to illness. I underwent medical treatment (records available ) for 1 month in India and joined Delhi office permanently in Feb.2021.  I spent 83 days in India in the FY 2020-21.

My employer has considered me as Resident and deducted tax for all my Income, throughout the year FY 2020-21.

My Indian income in FY 2020-21 is less than 15 lacs 

I did not return back to Abudhabi . Please help me in ascertaining  my residential status for FY 2020-21 .

Hope you will consider the latest circular dt. 3rd March 2021 from Income tax department also. circular enclosed.

As I understand, you will not be resident for FY20-21 because you have not stayed in India for >=182 days during FY20-21.

Thank you madam. 

The calculation of Indian come for above purpose is not clear to me. Whether Indian income is determined by amount credit in Indian Bank Account or Amount mentioned in Form 16 ?. In my case, the amount was credited in Abudhabi bank account in foreign currency. But employer considered it as Indian income because they consider me as Resident for FY 2020-21.
