FAQ

Is it mandatory to file ITR in India?

Yes, NRIs must file ITR in India if their total taxable income exceeds basic exemption limit in a financial year. Filing is also mandatory to claim TDS refunds or capital gain exemptions. Even if income includes capital gains or dividend income, ITR filing becomes compulsory.

What incomes are taxable in India for NRIs in UAE?

Only income earned or received in India is taxable — such as rental income, interest on NRO deposits, dividends, and capital gains from sale of assets situated in India.

What is the capital gain tax rate on sale of an immovable property?

Long-term capital gains (holding period >24 months) are taxed at 12.5% (plus surcharge & cess) without indexation. Short-term capital gains are taxed at applicable slab rates. Indexation benefit has been withdrawn for NRIs from FY 2023–24.

TDS while selling property in India is different for NRI vs. Resident Indian?

Yes, NRIs are subject to TDS at 12.5% (plus surcharge & cess) on long-term capital gains, whereas for resident sellers, TDS is deducted at just 1% on total sale consideration.

How to apply for lower TDS on sale of property by NRI?

NRIs can apply for a lower TDS certificate by filing Form 13 online on the TRACES portal, along with supporting documents including sale agreement and cost details.

Can you claim TDS refund?

Yes, if the TDS deducted exceeds your actual tax liability, you can claim a refund by filing your Income Tax Return and reporting accurate income and eligible deductions.

Mutual fund capital gain exempt for NRIs in UAE?

Capital gains from mutual funds are taxable in India. However, under the India–UAE DTAA, exemptions or relief may be claimed subject to compliance with conditions such as TRC (Tax Residency Certificate) and other documentation.

Is it possible to remit funds from NRO bank account to foreign bank legally?

Yes, NRIs can legally remit up to USD 1 million per financial year from their NRO account after payment of applicable taxes and submission of Form 15CA/15CB as per RBI and Income Tax rules.
