Common queries from our Global Indian clients.
No, under FEMA regulations, NRIs and PIOs cannot purchase agricultural land, plantation property, or farmhouses in India. However, they can inherit such properties.
Not necessarily. You can execute the purchase through a specific Power of Attorney (POA) given to a trusted relative or friend in India. We assist in drafting and adjudicating this POA to make it legally valid.
NRIs can repatriate the sale proceeds of up to 2 residential properties. The amount must not exceed USD 1 million per financial year. You will need Forms 15CA and 15CB from a Chartered Accountant, which our team can facilitate.
When an NRI sells property, the buyer must deduct TDS at roughly 20% (plus surcharge/cess) on Long Term Capital Gains. However, we can help you apply for a 'Lower Deduction Certificate' to reduce this tax burden significantly.
