Articles 681–720 of 2673, covering Tax / Foreign Bank Account, NRI Property / Sale, NRI Property / Purchase, NRI Tax / Rent and more.
‘It is the company’s money’ does not automatically end the reporting question if an Indian resident has authority over the foreign account.
The buyer’s TDS duty, the seller’s final capital-gain tax and the bank’s repatriation review are three separate calculations.
Property eligibility, payment route, title and state law must all work. A registered deed does not cure an impermissible FEMA transaction.
Rent is Indian-source income even when the owner lives abroad. The tenant’s withholding and the owner’s final tax are different.
A tax-exempt gift can still fail the FEMA or banking test. Relationship, ownership, source and payment route must all be documented.
Inheritance can be exempt at receipt and still create tax, FEMA, probate, valuation and reporting obligations later.
Education remittance is easier when tuition, living expenses, loan funding and beneficiary accounts are separated clearly.
Medical remittance rules can accommodate genuine treatment cost, but the bank still needs a clear estimate, beneficiary and source.
A card limit is not the same as a FEMA entitlement. Travel spends, cash and overseas investments should not be mixed.
Returning physically does not produce one universal tax date. FEMA account status and tax residence must be analysed separately.
Receiving foreign money is not the compliance event. The company must validate the investor, instrument, sector, valuation, allotment, reporting and downstream…
A bank purpose code is a reporting label, not a substitute for proving the contract, service, tax and arm’s-length basis.
Taxing a transaction does not automatically make its payment route or platform lawful under FEMA or Indian anti-money-laundering rules.
The FLA return is a balance-sheet disclosure to RBI, not an income-tax return or an MCA annual form. A company can have no fresh foreign transaction in the…
Compounding is a settlement mechanism for specified contraventions. It is not a device for converting a prohibited transaction into a permitted one or…
Form 15CA and 15CB do not decide whether a payment is commercially genuine or FEMA-permitted. They document the payer’s tax analysis for a foreign remittance.
A certificate of residence from one country does not automatically end the other country’s domestic residence claim. The treaty tie-breaker must be applied to…
FSI reports foreign income; TR reports relief; FA reports foreign assets and accounts. None of them replaces the ordinary salary, house-property, capital-gain…

Indian law permits NRI mutual-fund investment, but an AMC may impose operational restrictions for residents of certain countries because of overseas securities…
PIS is not a synonym for every NRI trade. The correct route depends on the security, exchange transaction, repatriation basis and source of funds.
The amount deducted by the broker or fund is not the capital-gain computation. Final tax depends on the asset, dates, cost, transaction route and current law.
The buyer must deduct under the non-resident framework, but the NRI seller should plan the certificate and evidence before the first instalment—not after…
Form 13 is a cash-flow tool backed by an estimated tax computation. It is not a shortcut for avoiding withholding without evidence.
PAN does not change when a person becomes NRI, but the contact, address, status and linked KYC records often do.
Aadhaar is available to an NRI with a valid Indian passport, but it is not proof of citizenship, tax residence or FEMA residence.
Becoming NRI does not by itself answer when EPF can be withdrawn. The EPF Scheme, international-worker status, Social Security Agreement and cessation facts…

A foreign property can be legally held yet poorly documented. Years later, the missing LRS, title, cost and renovation records can block tax and banking…
A parent can fund a child’s education, but the bank trail should state whether the money pays an expense, is a gift or is a recoverable loan.
RBI permits consolidation for genuine family participation; it does not create a market for borrowing another person’s annual LRS limit.
Incorporating a foreign company is a local-law step. Funding or acquiring it from India is a separate ODI transaction that must satisfy the Overseas Investment…
Cross-border disputes usually begin with a missing link: travel does not match status, bank credits do not match source, foreign assets do not match the…
A GST DRC-01 notice should be answered issue-wise with documents, reconciliations and a clear timeline, not with a generic paragraph. This guide helps…
A scrutiny notice often starts from mismatch. Finance teams need return-wise, ledger-wise and invoice-wise reconciliation before replying. This guide helps…
ITC mismatch is not just a tax issue; it can block working capital, create vendor disputes and invite follow-up notices. This guide helps businesses respond…
A vendor compliance scorecard helps businesses track filing behaviour, invoice quality, GSTIN status and ITC risk. This guide helps businesses respond with…
