Yes, your exemption period ended Dec 31, 2023 so you would be a resident alien in 2024.  You can file as a Dual-Status citizen, thus using the treaty benefits to exclude your Indian income from Aug-Dec. To file. To file as a dual-status citizen, you need to purchase TurboTax software.

Write Dual-Status Return across the top of the return. Attach an “informational statement” to your return to show the income for the part of the year you’re a resident. You can use Form 1040 as the statement, but be sure to write Dual-Status Statement across the top.
