Cool Rental income for NRIs

Hello Tanuj,
Just came across your query. Your NRI aunt can definitely rent out her property in India.

Here are a few pointer regarding rental income for NRIs:
  • NRIs can freely rent out property, source of acquisition of property not significant.
  • Freely repatriate rental income without prior permission.
  • Tax deducted at source on rental income, freely adjust rental income against home loans.
  • If loan amount is higher, pay through NRE, NRO and FCNR accounts.
  • NRIs/PIOs can take the advantage of indexing the cost of acquisition and improvement, investing of sale proceeds in special Bonds
  • On deciding to sell the rental property the NRI can apply to the Income tax authorities for the certificate to be deducted at source.
