Hi,

Your query is not clear - whether the author is an Indian or foreigner? If an Indian living in Dubai, then he/she can publish the books in India if the book published is not against Public Policy and other restrictions imposed in India. The money also gets deposited in his/her Indian account for which he/she need to pay taxes.
