Hello everyone,
My company has announced that our operations shall be permanently work-from-home even post-Covid. Since I can now work from anywhere, I have been considering oving to Dubai and living for a few years there.
I have a few questions regarding this:
1) Is this legally allowed? (as I see it, it's similar to people being sent on-site)
2) Since I will spend more than 182 days outside India, does that mean I don't pay income tax in India?
3) Can I continue to receive salary in my Indian bank account when working from Dubai? Will this impact tax in anyway?
4) If I am eligible for tax relief - Since companies generally hold tax at source, does this mean I can only get the money back as claim on my returns?
Thanks in advance for your reply.
