Frequently Asked Questions

What are the FEMA rules for NRI property purchase in India?

expand_more

Under FEMA, NRIs can purchase residential and commercial property in India without RBI permission. Payment must be through NRE/NRO/FCNR accounts — no foreign currency payments. Agricultural land, plantation property, and farmhouses cannot be purchased by NRIs. Sale proceeds repatriation is capped at USD 1 million per financial year from NRO accounts.

What happens if I don't convert my account within 30 days of becoming NRI?

expand_more

FEMA requires resident savings accounts to be redesignated as NRO accounts within a reasonable time of becoming a non-resident. While 30 days is the commonly cited timeline, there's no explicit statutory deadline. However, failure to redesignate can lead to FEMA violations with penalties up to 3x the amount involved. Banks may also freeze accounts if they detect non-compliance.

How much money can NRIs repatriate from India?

expand_more

From NRE accounts: unlimited repatriation, no restrictions. From NRO accounts: up to USD 1 million per financial year (net of taxes), requires CA certificate in Form 15CA/15CB. Sale proceeds of property: repatriation allowed for up to 2 residential properties, capped at USD 1 million per financial year.
