NRO/NRE Investment Structuring FAQs
Common questions about income tax, compliance, and litigation support in India.
What’s the difference between NRE and NRO accounts?
NRE is for foreign income and is repatriable; NRO is for income earned in India. Each has specific tax and compliance rules.
Can I repatriate investments made through my NRO account?
Yes, up to $1 million/year with proper certification (Form 15CA/CB). We handle the documentation for you.
Which account is better for real estate investments?
Depends on source of funds and repatriation goals. We analyze your specific case before advising.
Is income from NRE investments tax-free?
Interest on NRE FDs is tax-free in India if you qualify as NRI under tax law. But documentation is key.
