06 February 2024 Hello CA Club Tax Experts:

Current status: OCI holder with foreign residency.

As we approach retirement in the next few years, we are exploring options of staying in India for extended periods of time, for example, for a few weeks to few months.

What would be the tax implication for us in India and our home country of citizenship if we stay in India for 3 months or 6 months or more in a year? We have foreign passports with an OCI card.

Regards,
Sunil Kumar Bali
