Asked 10 years ago in Income Tax
The taxability of your salary income received in Dubai will be determined by your residential status. If you are a resident in India then it will be taxable in India and if your a non resident or a not ordinarily resident then salary earned in Dubai will not be taxable in India. your residential status will be determined on the basis of no of days stayed by you in India.
In the present case it looks that you were in India for more than 182 days. In this case you need to declare the whole amount in India and taxed accordingly since dubai is a tax free country.
