Since you have stayed more than 182 days in India, you are a resident and your global income will be taxable in India irrespective of receipt of income in nre or nro account

Since you acquired resident status , you will be required to include your world wide income in the Tax return.

However you will certainly get benefits under DTAA so that there will not be double taxation.

Sec 6(1) of the income tax act refers to the
residential status of citizen of INDIA.
IF AN INDIA CITIZEN FOR THE PURPOSE OF EMPLOYMENT OUTSIDE INDIA STAYS in

INDIa for a period of LESS THAN 182 DAYS OR HE IS IN INDIA FOR A PERIOD OF LESS THAN 60 DAYS OR LESS THAN 365 DAYS INMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE PREVIOUS 4 YEARS.
IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES HE IS A NRI .
HE HAS TO JUSTIFY FOR WHAT PURPOSE HE STAYED MORE THAN 182 DAYS.
