<s>[INST] What are the different classes of residential status prescribed under the Income-tax Law for a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF)? [/INST] For the purpose of Income-tax Law, a HUF can have  any one of the following residential status:

(1) Resident and ordinarily resident in India

(2) Resident but not ordinarily resident in India

(3) Non-resident

Every year the residential status of the taxpayer is to be determined by applying the provisions of the Income-tax Law designed in this regard (discussed later) and, hence, it may so happen that in one year the HUF would be  a resident and ordinarily resident and in the next year it may become non-resident or resident but not ordinarily resident and again in the next year its status may change or may remain same. ​ </s>
