The Indian government has made it easier for NRIs to invest in real estate through well-defined regulations under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA). As per the current guidelines, NRIs and Persons of Indian Origin (PIOs) can freely purchase residential and commercial properties in India without special permission from the Reserve Bank of India. All payments can be made through NRE, NRO, or FCNR accounts in Indian currency. However, agricultural land, plantation property, and farmhouses are restricted. At Mathapathi Constructions, our legal advisors help you understand every aspect of the process, ensuring your investment is fully compliant and secure.
To make your property purchase seamless, certain documents are required, such as a valid passport, PAN card, overseas address proof, and visa details. In cases where you cannot be physically present, a Power of Attorney can be executed to authorize a trusted representative to act on your behalf. Our team guides you through each step with complete clarity, ensuring your buying experience remains stress-free and efficient.

However, agricultural land, plantation property, and farmhouses cannot be purchased by NRIs.
Bangalore offers consistent ROI, rental demand, and future appreciation due to:
Its IT and startup ecosystem
– Cosmopolitan culture and global connectivity
– High housing demand from professionals
– Steady infrastructure growth (Metro, ORR, Peripheral Ring Road)
– That’s why NRIs prefer areas like Gunjur, Whitefield, Sarjapur Road, and Bellandur for long-term property value.
Top-performing localities for NRIs include:
– Gunjur – affordable yet fast-growing IT corridor
– Whitefield – global corporate hub
– Sarjapur Road – strong rental market
– Hebbal & Yelahanka – luxury segment with airport access
– Electronic City – tech-driven and value-for-money homes
Each location offers a mix of rental yield + appreciation potential.
Absolutely. NRIs can avail home loans from Indian banks and NBFCs such as HDFC, SBI, ICICI, Axis Bank, etc.
Loans are typically available for up to 80–85% of the property value and EMIs are paid through NRE/NRO accounts.
Here’s a simple checklist:
– Passport & valid visa copy
– OCI/PIO card (if applicable)
– Indian PAN card
– Address proof (India & overseas)
– Latest overseas bank statements
– Power of Attorney (if someone in India handles registration)

Another NRI/OCI holder, or
A resident Indian relative (subject to FEMA guidelines).
However, ensure that funds used for purchase come from NRE/NRO accounts only.
NRIs can appoint a Power of Attorney (PoA) in India to complete registration and documentation.
The PoA can be executed abroad and attested at the Indian Embassy or Consulate, ensuring full legal validity.
Yes, rental income earned in India is taxable under Indian law.
However, NRIs can:
Claim a 30% standard deduction on rental income
Avail DTAA (Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement) benefits to avoid paying tax twice
Rental income is usually credited to your NRO account.

Rent can be repatriated after applicable taxes.
Sale proceeds of property purchased with foreign funds can be repatriated for up to two properties.
NRIs are subject to Capital Gains Tax:
Short-Term (less than 2 years): Taxed as per income slab
Long-Term (over 2 years): 20% with indexation benefits
To save tax, NRIs can reinvest in another property (Section 54) or in 54EC Bonds (NHAI/REC).
Yes. Many reputed developers (like Mathapathi Constructions) offer ready-to-occupy apartments with assured rentals for 24 months or more.
This helps NRIs earn immediate passive income while the property value appreciates steadily.
Always ensure the project is:
RERA registered (check via rera.karnataka.gov.in)
Has clear land titles & approvals
Delivered by reputed builders known for on-time completion (like Mathapathi Constructions)
Legal due diligence is key for safe investment.
