Frequently Asked Questions
Whether investing from abroad, buying for your family, or planning your return to India, you may have questions about the NRI property investment process and documentation.
Yes. Under the general permission granted by the RBI under FEMA, Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) and Overseas Citizens of India (OCIs) can freely purchase residential and commercial properties without seeking specific regulatory approvals. There is no restriction on the number of commercial or residential properties an NRI can acquire.
When buying property in India for an NRI from a resident, a 1% TDS applies if the property value exceeds ₹50 lakhs. If purchasing from another NRI, the buyer must deduct TDS at 20% (plus surcharge and cess) for Long-Term Capital Gains. When selling your property, the buyer is required to deduct TDS at 20% for properties held longer than 24 months, or at standard slab rates for short-term holdings.
No. Current FEMA regulations explicitly prohibit NRIs and OCIs from purchasing agricultural land, plantation property, or farmhouses. These specific property types can only be acquired by NRIs through inheritance from a person resident in India.
Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) may transfer rental earnings abroad without restriction once all relevant Indian taxes are settled, provided the funds are processed through a Non-Resident Ordinary (NRO) account. For proceeds from a property sale, NRIs are allowed to remit up to $1 million USD per financial year. To successfully authorize this transfer, financial institutions require official proof of the property transaction alongside Form 15CA and a Chartered Accountant’s certification (Form 15CB), which certifies the applicable tax has been paid or met prior to the remittance.
Physical presence is not legally mandatory to register your NRI property purchase in India. The entire transaction can be securely executed by granting a specific Power of Attorney (PoA) to a trusted resident or legal representative. This document must be notarized in your current country of residence, attested by the Indian consulate, and subsequently stamped and registered in India.
Funding for your NRI real estate investment in India must come through inward remittances via standard banking channels, or via funds held in your NRE, NRO, or FCNR(B) accounts. However, any subsequent earnings generated in India, such as rental income, must be credited strictly to an NRO account.
Review these questions on FEMA guidelines, taxation, and legal procedures to ensure your investment is secure.
