1. Residential Status — Are You an NRI?
Your tax obligations in India depend on your residential status for FY 2025-26:
| Status | Condition | Tax Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Resident (ROR) | 182+ days in India in FY 2025-26, OR 60+ days AND 365+ days in last 4 years | Global income taxable |
| Non-Resident (NRI) | Does not meet resident conditions | Only India-sourced income |
| RNOR | Returned NRI — specific conditions | India income + certain foreign income |
If you are uncertain about your residential status for FY 2025-26, TaxAMC can determine it based on your travel records — this is the most critical first step in NRI tax planning.
2. What India Income is Taxable for NRIs?
- Rental income from property in Noida
- Capital gains from selling property, shares, or mutual funds in India
- Interest from NRO accounts and fixed deposits
- Dividends from Indian companies
- Salary for services rendered in India
- Business income from operations in India
NOT taxable for NRIs: NRE account interest, FCNR deposit interest, foreign salary for work done abroad, foreign business income.
3. Selling Property in Noida as an NRI
Property sale is the most common NRI tax situation in Noida. Key rules for FY 2025-26:
| Type | Holding Period | Tax Rate | Buyer Must Deduct TDS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Short-term gain | Below 2 years | As per slab (up to 30%) | 30% on full sale amount |
| Long-term gain | Above 2 years | 12.5% (without indexation) | 12.5% on gain amount |
Lower TDS Certificate (Form 13): TaxAMC strongly recommends applying for a Lower TDS Certificate before selling your Noida property. The actual tax after proper computation is often far lower than the TDS deducted — this certificate reduces TDS to the correct amount, improving your cash flow significantly.
Tax saving options: Reinvest gains in a new residential property (Section 54) or Capital Gains Bonds — NHAI, REC (Section 54EC) — to save or defer capital gains tax.
Selling property in Noida as an NRI? Apply for Lower TDS Certificate before the sale — our CA team handles the complete application.

| Feature | NRO Account | NRE Account |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | India-earned income — rent, dividends, pension | Foreign earnings remitted to India |
| Interest taxable? | Yes — TDS at 30% + surcharge + cess | No — completely exempt |
| Repatriation limit | Up to USD 1 million/year after tax | Freely repatriable |
Rental income from your Noida property must flow through your NRO account. TaxAMC ensures NRO income is correctly reported in your ITR and excess TDS is claimed as refund.
5. DTAA Benefits for NRIs
India has signed Double Tax Avoidance Agreements (DTAA) with over 90 countries. As an NRI, DTAA can reduce your tax liability in India:
- Reduced TDS rates: Dividend TDS may be 10–15% under DTAA instead of 20%
- Foreign tax credit: Tax paid in India claimed as credit in your country of residence
- Exemptions: Certain income types may be exempt in India under specific DTAA provisions
To claim DTAA benefits, provide a Tax Residency Certificate (TRC) from your country of residence and file Form 10F with the relevant Indian income payer. TaxAMC handles complete DTAA documentation and claims for NRIs.

- Total India income exceeds ₹2.5 lakh in FY 2025-26
- TDS has been deducted and you want a refund
- You have capital gains from property or shares in India
