I don't your going out for 2 days will make any difference because in one case you will be a non resident and in second case you will be a resident but not ordinary resident and in both cases your income earned in India will only be taxed.
Therefore I don't think going out of for 2 days will make any difference.
Just file the income tax return showing income earned in India, TDS deducted on same and claim refund of such TDS.
Hope you find the information helpful if you do please rate it 5 and provide your valuable feedback for my improvement.
Thank you
Hi,
Your status is ‘NRI,’ your income which is earned or accrued in India is taxable in India.
You need to file return, show the income earned or accrued in India and claim tds refund subject to actual tax liability in India.
Hi
31st Jan shall be considered while calculating the period of stay in India. So, your period of stay comes out to be 60 days and you will be a resident of India.
If you travel outside India for 2days, you will then be a Non resident.
