I am an NRI for last two years. If I plan to come to India in Jun 2023, does my foreign income (Dubai) from Apr to Jun 23 become taxable for FY 24 in India? I am salaried and there is no business or rental income abroad

Ans: If you don not follow the rules for an NRI as per the IT Act for FY24 , then you will be residential individual and not a NRI due to which all the income will be taxable.

I am working in Dubai at an MNC company since May 2022. I am thinking of coming back to India this year. Will I have to pay any tax in India on the income that I have earned in Dubai between May 2022 and June 2024?
Ans: Most likely, you will not have to pay taxes in India on your income earned in Dubai between May 2022 and June 2024. Here's why:

• No income tax in Dubai: The United Arab Emirates (UAE), which includes Dubai, does not levy personal income tax on its residents or even foreign nationals living there.
• India-UAE Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA): India and UAE have a DTAA in place. This agreement prevents double taxation on the same income earned in both countries.
• NRIs and Indian taxation: Since you're working in Dubai, you're likely considered a Non-Resident Indian (NRI) for Indian tax purposes. NRIs generally don't pay Indian income tax on income earned outside India.

However, there are a few things to keep in mind:

• Indian income: This benefit applies only to your income earned in Dubai. If you have any income sources in India (rental income, investments etc.), you might need to pay taxes on those in India.
• Residential status: Your residential status for tax purposes is determined by various factors like stay duration in India. It's best to consult a tax advisor if your situation regarding residential status is unclear.

For a more definitive answer, consulting a chartered accountant or tax advisor specialising in NRI taxation is recommended. They can assess your specific situation and provide personalized advice.
