Ever paused and wondered, “Am I a Resident or a Non-Resident?” You’re not alone. India’s tax rules hinge on how many days you spend here. And then… you enter the room. Your heart drops. The pressure is on. Use our Residential Status Calculator to take the guesswork off your plate.
How to Calculate Residential Status
It’s simple math with a twist.
- Stay 182 days or more in the current year → Resident.
- Stay 60–181 days and 365+ days over the last four years → Resident.
- Otherwise → Non-Resident (NRI). There’s a special rule for Indian citizens and PIOs with high income: only 120 days in the current year if you earn over ₹15 lakh in India. Think of it like a VIP pass—shorter stay, same result.
