income tax /any other tax for NRI

Dear Sir,

Please be informed that i was working in india in 2006-2007 and have pan card.

since 2007 i am working in different parts of world for bread and butter but have not yet filed my tax return.

i am saving the money and sending it to my SBI -saving account. (its non NRI account).

Do i need to file tax return for all these years ?

if i transfer money to my NRI account in another bank , still i need to pay any kind of tax or not or to file the tax return.

kindly inform in detail.
