Hello, I have a query in RTP Q.16 (Direct taxes). The Q. is related to DTAA provisions. As per the answer to part (i) of the Q., Mr. Rajesh shall be deemed to be resident of the foreign country for the A.Y. 2013-14. But in part (ii) of the Q., in which it is asked that "Is Mr. Rajesh required to file the return of income for A.Y. 2013-14?" The answer is given that he has to file the return of income for A.Y. 2013-14 as he is a resident.

Why this discripency is there in the Q.'s answer. or I am going wrong to understand what the Q. actually indicating?

Please advise. Thanks.
