A person joined a company in UK in September 2020 after doing jobs in Indian companies in NCR before that. Due to lockdown in UK he came to India in December 2020 for WFH and again joined it in UK in April 2021. Thus he can't be categorised as an NRI as per FEMA/ IT Act.

Which ITR he has to fill and exemptions allowed on his foreign income. Please advice in details.

You are a resident as per IT Act and you have to pay tax on your global income in India. i.e. what ever amount you earned outside India that is UK salary also included in taxable income.

if you pay any tax in UK regarding UK salary you will get rebate of the same while paying taxes in India. that means you can reduce the tax to the extent of tax paid income of UK.

irrespective of the residential status individual who are earning only salary income can go with ITR 1.
