As the person has left India for the purpose of employment there is only 1 condition he has to fulfill in order to be a resident ie. he has to be in India for a minimum of 182 days.....
so mr. A has stayed in India till 21/9/09 ie. for174 days,,,so he is not a resident....he is non resident...

1.minimum of 182 days in India in the p.y
2.minimum 60 days in India in p.y and minimum 365 days in India in 4 p.y immediately preceeding the p.y

The above rule has certain exceptions in which only the 1st condition has to be satisfied in order to be a resident...they are..
1. in case an assessee goes outside India for the purpose of employment or as a member of crew of Indian ship.
2. in case a person of indian origin comes on a visit to India..
