How to determine Residential Status?

The taxability of a person changes based on their residential status. You should determine residential status for a financial year before filing your income tax return.

The residential status is different from the citizenship of a person. For instance, a person can be a citizen of India but not a resident. 

For income tax purpose there are 3 types of residential statuses:

• Ordinary Resident of India
• Resident but Not Ordinary Resident of India (RNOR)
• Non-Resident of India (NRI)
