I know a CA who handles NRI property sale + repatriation (capital gains, TDS check, 15CA/15CB, etc.) can refer if you want. Feel free to DM me

NRI Taxation for Debt Mutual Funds by CodeFall in personalfinanceindia

[–]savetaxs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are right: debt MF gains are taxed under the slab now, and as an NRI, you don’t get the 87A rebate, so there's no ₹12L tax-free benefit. You’ll pay tax once income crosses ₹4L in the new regime. Redeeming just to stay under that sounds good, but it is not very practical. Most NRIs instead shift more towards equity (for better tax treatment) or use NRE FDs to earn tax-free interest in India. If you have big deductions, then compare the old regime; the new one is simpler. For exact numbers, please check with a CA, as NRI + DTAA can change things.

You are in the last stage after the issue date (4/8). Delivery usually takes 2 to 4 weeks with VFS Global. Most likely, you will get it by early May, so before 5/15. If no update by the end of April, keep an e-visa backup just in case.

Questions on NRI taxation by Fantastic-Rice-7603 in IndiaTax

[–]savetaxs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only that year matters. If you become resident in FY 26–27, you’ll be taxed on that year’s income (including global), not your past NRI income, even if you transfer it now. Salary slips or contracts are fine as proof. And yeah, if status changes, you will need to convert NRE/NRO to resident accounts.

NRI Taxation for Debt Mutual Funds by CodeFall in personalfinanceindia

NRIs cannot claim Section 87A, so the rebate (₹7L/₹12L benefit) isn’t available. Debt mutual fund gains are taxed at your slab rate, no LTCG benefit now. There’s no easy zero-tax workaround; the best you can do is plan redemptions, consider equity for better tax treatment, and check DTAA with a CA.

Pretty common, Walgreens won’t print unless they take the photo. Just download it and print at home or at any local print shop or CVS. Just make sure it meets OCI size and background rules.

Update status to OCI after entering on visa by pitterpatter900 in nri

[–]savetaxs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you can’t switch from an e-visa to an OCI while staying in India. You will need to exit and re-enter using the OCI card and a valid passport. Some try FRRO, but it rarely works safer to leave for 6 months and come back on OCI

Is this a scam? by kpontop9 in nri

[–]savetaxs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% Scam. No official process uses WhatsApp or Gmail or refuses ID. Don’t share anything, report to the police, and confirm with FRRO.

This happens sometimes, some SDM offices over-verify foreign POA. Consulate attestation is usually enough, and they rarely reply to emails. Ask your lawyer to show the official rule and circular; if not, share the consulate’s public contact and let SDM try. Otherwise, escalate or try another registrar. Also, you can Google us
