NRI property transactions can involve legal review, tax compliance, TDS, banking documentation, FEMA rules and India-side follow-up. MPM NRI Properties helps coordinate the right independent legal, tax and banking professionals so you can move through the process with clearer documentation, responsibilities and next steps.
This page is for overseas owners who need specialist coordination around a purchase, sale, remittance, or reinvestment — not a general property-listing desk.
Before an NRI commits to a property transaction, independent legal review can help identify documentation gaps and transaction risks. MPM can coordinate with qualified legal professionals for transaction-specific review.
When the seller is a non-resident, the tax-deduction process differs from a normal resident-property sale. MPM helps coordinate the transaction with the buyer, CA/tax professional and legal team so the parties can organize the required tax and closing documentation.
If you are selling one property and considering another investment in India, tax outcomes depend on your facts, holding period, transaction timing and the relief provisions that may apply. MPM can coordinate the property side while your qualified tax professional advises on the tax treatment.
Property transactions by NRIs can involve FEMA rules on eligible property, permitted payment channels, account usage and repatriation. MPM coordinates with banks and independent FEMA/tax professionals to help clients organize the relevant transaction documents.

No. MPM coordinates with independent qualified professionals. Legal, tax and FEMA conclusions are provided by the relevant professional.
RBI guidance generally permits NRIs to purchase residential and commercial immovable property, while agricultural land, plantation property and farm houses are subject to different restrictions. Transaction-specific confirmation should be obtained where needed.
A sale by a non-resident is handled under the non-resident TDS framework, including Section 195 under the current Income-tax regime. The exact deduction and filing position should be calculated by a qualified tax professional for the transaction.
We can coordinate the documents and professional process where a qualified tax professional advises that a lower or nil deduction application is appropriate and available.
Repatriation depends on the source of funds, account route, taxes, bank documentation and FEMA conditions. MPM can coordinate the documentation process with the client’s authorized dealer bank and qualified professionals.
Permitted account and remittance routes depend on the transaction. RBI guidance recognizes normal banking channels and eligible NRE / NRO / FCNR(B) routes for applicable NRI property purchases; confirm the exact route with the bank.
Independent legal due diligence is strongly recommended where title, agreement, approval or transaction-risk review is required. MPM can coordinate that review.
