13 Points You Must Know NRE- NRO - FCNR Accounts

[@culkpp6073]

Sir, your videos are extremely helpful and informative. Your style of explanation is simple and easy to understand. This topic is discussed heavily among all the NRIs in various countries as there's not a single video to explain. I'm clubbing all the questions together regarding How to safely transfer money for returning NRIs. 1. should they transfer money all in one go or in steps ( to get the better currency conversion rates ) 2. In india maximum insured amount is 5 Lacs but when NRIs return back, their money will be substantially higher than this bracket. Then how to manage the large funds, is it safe to keep them NRE/FCNR accounts? 3. If NRI is say transferring 100k USD then in Rs. it will 83 Lacs then is it advisable to keep that large amount in one account or split it or invest it anywhere 4. Tax considerations regarding amount sent.

😢A video on how to invest in stocks and MFs in India by US and Canadian citizens with OCI cards, is appreciated. Thanks.

[@yrg007]

Highly convoluted… thanks to US’s FATCA. On etfs and mf you’ll be taxed on unrealized gains.

[@jijijacob168]

@@yrg007 Taxed on unrealised gains too? That's weird.

[@yrg007]

@@jijijacob168 it’s true for ETFs and some MFs. If you buy stocks then it doesn’t apply.

Excellent information.... Very important for all NRI account holders.... Thanks. What about treatment of income tax on income on MF bought through NRE account when sold. Please guide.

[@BalajiSselvabala]

Greatly appreciate your informative videos. I understand that FCNR is not an account but only a fixed deposit in a foreign currency held under your NRE accounts Also would require a clarification if the FCNR \ RFC account is tax free with respect to the interest earned for the returning NRI after his status has changed to residents?

[@amandeepsinghthakur832]

Well explained really appreciate it thanks for information 🙏

[@jasvindernanda2919]

Thanks , It was a very informative and useful video. Please could you make a video on the KYC requirements for NRi's. Is there a central place to do KYC so every bank can have access. I am being asked by my bank every now and then to do KYC even though I do it every year.

Can a NRi, citizen of India but resident of US take loan in Indian from his Indian friend in his NRO account?

[@mukundlimaye8210]

Actually all facilities of NRE are almost eyewash. While transferring foreign currency to India @2 Rs/ $ are lost in conversion. Same while repatriation. So you loose everything what you gained in Interest. Unless you have large transactions across globe, none of the schemes are investor friendly😢

Sir, I am filing my first ITR as NRI. I am having trouble adding my bank account for refund. I have NRE account and it was denied to receive refund. So what type of account I should have in order to link with ITR. Thanks

[@owenpaul5632]

While I am thankful to the presenter and the channel for making this video. But at the same time, I like to warn every NRIs about current dubious Indian government and policies. Repatriation of money from India to any foreign country was always costly and complicated. Although after 2016 the bank related RED tape is all time high, the bank/KYC related rules are continuous changing and impossible to follow for someone living outside India. When its comes to withdrawing money from Indian bank (specially government bank), forget about NRI, even Indian citizens are having hard time. My parents and every senior member of my family were harassed every 3-6 months with frozen accounts, just because they are not online users. Before 2014 without court approval no bank could freeze any account. But now it's legal for banks to freeze any bank account including senior citizens without any court order. Death of democracy. Final nail in coffin, most of the banks in India are government banks. and they will never provide paperwork on time, especially the extra info for NRO/NRE/other accounts to file foreign tax. So, in case of conflict there will be court case as "you vs government of India, where no citizens (Indian or NRI) ever going to get justice.

Sincere question sir - If NRO FD has 35 lacs and generates 2.5 lacs yearly interest, India is not taxing as it is within tax exempt slab. In other words we are getting TDS refund when filing taxes. Should we show this NRO interest to USA ? My understanding is both countries have DTAA double tax avoidance treaty.

To best of my knowledge and understanding, you are required to show this in USA . For clear answers please refer to a CPA in US
