Hi,
I am an NRI, a USA citizen. My brother in India wants to gift me two acres of land (valued at around 25 lakhs) would either of us have to pay taxes on that amount?
However, if you're sending more than about $700 to someone in India who isn't a blood relative, they'll need to report it on their taxes. No matter how you send the money, your recipient could be on the hook for a gift tax if they aren't a blood relative, as regulated by the Indian Income Tax Act.
A resident individual may send up to $2.5 lakh in a year. An NRI with a Non-Resident Ordinary (NRO) account may send up to $10 lakh in a financial year. An individual with a Non-Resident External (NRE) account or a Foreign Currency Non-Resident (FCNR) Account does not have any such limits. us to india money transfer charges currencies exchanges inr seminars webinars


Hello, great blog here! I am an NRI holding NRI and NRO bank accounts in India. My father who is a resident Indian sold one of his properties and wants to gift the proceeds to me. I prefer the money is in NRE, rather than my NRO account. Can this money be received in my NRE bank account? If he transfers the money to me via a cheque/transfer, would that money be repatriable?

There is no recipient tax on money being transferred from abroad to India when it's being sent to blood relatives. In general, "blood relatives" -- including spouses, children and grandchildren, siblings or in-laws -- don't pay tax on any amount you send.
