How the 182-day rule works in India
India uses a fiscal year (April to March) and a 182-day threshold, not 183. Additional criteria exist for Indian citizens and PIOs.
Fiscal year (varies by country). The fiscal year start and end dates differ from the calendar year. Check the specific fiscal year dates for India to know your counting window.
If you exceed 182 days, India may tax your worldwide income as a tax resident. The exact consequences depend on your personal situation, any applicable tax treaties, and the type of income involved.
