Big win for NRI taxpayers: ITAT Chennai rules he qualifies as non-resident, no tax in India on overseas earnings

An NRI successfully challenged the Indian tax department's decision to tax his global income. The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) Chennai ruled that Mr. Dhinakaran qualified as a non-resident, restoring his tax benefits. The tribunal emphasized that holding a managerial position doesn't disqualify one from being considered an employee under tax law, provided a contractual service relationship exists.
