Can sale proceeds of NRI property be remitted out of India?
Yes. Repatriation of original NRI investments in respect of Indian properties purchased by NRIs on or after 26 May 1993 will be allowed to be remitted up to the consideration amount originally remitted from abroad provided the NRI property is sold after a period of three years from the date of the final purchase deed or from the date of payment of final installment of consideration amount, which ever is later. Applications for the purpose are required to be made to the Central Office of Reserve Bank within 90 days of the sale of property in form IPI 8.
