90/180 days rule just for Schengen?
If someone a national of third-party country (say India), has for example Italy temporary resident permit, can he stay in his own country more than 90 days in 180 days?
This rule is just for another Schengen country say France or all the countries included? I have 2 years student resident permit of Italy.

This rule is just about giving you an additional right that you did not have before, namely staying in other Schengen countries than Italy. It doesn't restrict your right to be anywhere.
It doesn't even restrict your right to be in France for any amount of time, if you somehow qualify for it in another way (say being the spouse of an EU citizen residing in France). It just means that this Italian visa doesn't give you the right to be in France indefinitely.
Italy may have rules that invalidate your residence permit if you stay out of the country for too long. It might also be necessary to show that you haven't interrupted your studies and are making progress. I have no idea whether that's the case in Italy or what the specifics might be but that's completely unrelated to the 90/180 period and I am not aware of any European state using that particular threshold for this purpose.

Well, you can tour around different Schengen member states like France, Spain, or Germany and by the time you hit your 90-day limit, go and hop over to a non-Schengen European country like Croatia, UK, North Macedonia, or Turkey to wait until you hit the 181st day so that you can come back to the Schengen Area again.Can you stay in Europe for more than 3 months after Brexit?

The 90/180-day rule refers to not spending more than '90 days in any 180-day period' in the Schengen area. This concerns those people entering the area as visitors from third countries whose nationals are exempt from visitor visas (nationals of certain countries may not even visit France without a visa).What is the 90 180 Day Rule?
