Dear Noel,
I think I can give some idea as to what to do in this situation... - You need a Non-Resident (Ordinary) Account to deposit the sale proceeds of your ancestral home. - Tax will have to be paid due to the capital gains. But make sure that you take into account the cost of the flat when it was purchased and index the same. - You can deposit the money (up to Rs 50 lakhs) in notified bonds for saving tax. Alternatively, you can invest the sum of money in purchasing a new residential property. - The amount can be repatriated after paying the tax. Best of Luck !!! |

Living in Dubai are we ???
Well havent you read any of the local newspapers then which feature NRI problems almost daily ??? Best for you is to (when in India) go speak to your bank who will guide you to the latest laws and applicable points to you. quote=noel;1758]Dear Members.. can u pls help me with this..........
