1. He DOES HAVE income TAXABLE in India in the form of Bank interest.
2. However, since the income is less than the TAXABLE LIMIT (Rs. 2 lakhs) + he DOES NOT have any other income taxable in India + he is a NON-RESIDENT in India, he is NOT required to file a return of income.
His residential status will be resident and ordinarily resident of India for financial year 2013-14 & has properties situated outside India (as per section 139)
