Tips for NRIs planning to gift their property in India

When compared to Indian citizens, there are several additional steps for an NRI when gifting a property located in India.

Just like anyone who owns property in India, non-resident Indians, too, are free to give their property to others. Like Indian citizens, they will be liable to pay stamp duty and registration charges to complete the formal arrangement, giving the property transfer legal validity; as long as the property cost is over Rs 100, which it invariably is.

What are the things NRIs have to take care of when gifting a property in India?

Under the current Indian law, prior approval from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is required for an NRI to gift India property. In a recent ruling, the Supreme Court reiterated the rules in this regard.

‘The requirement specified in Section 31 (of the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, 1973) is mandatory and, therefore, (a) contract or (an) agreement, including the gift, pertaining to the transfer of immovable property of a foreign national, without previous general or special permission of the RBI, would be unenforceable in law,’ the SC said in a ruling in 2021.

‘The prior permission of the RBI is mandatory and any subsequent permission cannot be granted by the RBI. Transactions carried out without the RBI’s permission are opposed to public policy and, thus, unlawful,’ it added.

Stamp duty on gifting for an NRI

Some states allow rebates if the property is gifted to a relative. This means the stamp duty and registration charges are either fully exempted or partially levied against gifting to a non-relative.
Relatives in the legally defined list are:

  • Father
  • Mother
  • Stepmother
  • Spouse
  • Siblings
  • Children
  • Child’s spouse
  • Stepsister and stepbrother
  • Stepchildren
  • Grandparents
  • Grandchildren
  • Grandchild’s spouse
  • Siblings’ spouse

All other relatives are considered non-relatives as per the legal definition.

7 Easy Ways To Give Your Wall A Complete Makeover

There are many things in your home that are close to your heart or have memories attached with it but are of no use. These are often dumped in that box holding all the things you do not need. However, there is an interesting way to bring to life these old memories and give them a place in your home’s décor – turn them into art.

And, while you thought art was expensive, these old memories will only make it priceless without you having to invest anything.

Give your wall a complete makeover with these quirky tips:

CD covers

We are all about streaming music and casting videos now, making CDs a yesteryear product. However, old, some of the CDs, yes, you can admit that you bought them because they had a beautiful cover. It was later that you fell in love with the songs. Why not turn these beautiful covers into an art?

Pick some colourful covers and create a collage. Use wooden framing to turn this collage into a wall hanging, an art piece that would be loved by the many music lovers.

Stamps or postcards

Many of our parents had the hobby of collecting stamps and postcards from around the world. Colourful and interesting, these stamps and postcards can be a piece of art, too. Use them to transform your otherwise drab walls.

Handkerchiefs

Bright, colourful and patterned handkerchiefs can be an interesting option, too. Use them in small frames and place them in a collage form on the walls. Make sure you use them on the wall you want to highlight the most in your room. This can make the otherwise pastel theme of your room come to life.

Old hand-written letters

Hand-written letters are a thing of yesteryear, but, remain close to our hearts still. Framing an old letter your best friend wrote to you, or a letter you received from your grandparents when you were a small child, could be a good way of keeping the memories alive. Also, the vintage look of the letter, a beautiful handwriting and the beautiful words written can do wonders to the overall decor.

Book covers

Many of us choose our books by their covers that attract our attention. Some quirky, some telling and some bright, these book covers can be a great way to deck up your walls. Make a collage of some interesting book covers and frame them to create a piece of art. Have some old or rare book covers? Try it now.

Currency notes

Frequent travellers have a hobby of collecting currency notes just like some have a hobby of collecting postcards and stamps. These can also be used to adorn your walls. Just like you would do to book covers and stamps, frame these currency notes to create a wall art.

Old photos

What better way than to say it with pictures? Old pictures of your parents when they were young, photos of your childhood and now photos of your little ones put together can create a beautiful family tree frame. A mix of monochrome and coloured pictures can be pleasing to the eye.

BONUS Point:

Wallpapers

Although not from the closet of old memories, left out wallpaper can also be turned into an art by just framing it. Have a piece of wallpaper that was used to decorate the walls of your bedroom? Use this left out piece and get it framed to add beauty to the plain walls of your living room. You could also frame a variety of wallpapers to create a multi-colour scheme.

Common Myths About Property Tax Payment Busted

In matters that are considered complicated, we tend to believe any opinions that come our way. However, in matters as serious as property, public opinion should not be our guide. If you recently bought a property, it is important to understand your tax liabilities. Any confusion in this regard can cause major financial losses.

Myth: Property tax can be paid anytime

Fact: You can pay your property tax on both a semi-annual and an annual basis. In case of a delay in payments, a penalty is charged. However, municipal bodies are often seen extending schemes to encourage taxpayers to make payments by waiving penalty amount by a huge margin.

Myth: My tenant will pay property tax on rented unit

Fact: As the owner of the property, a landlord is responsible for paying the property tax, and not the tenant. It is illegal to force your tenant to do the same. In many countries, tenants are responsible for paying this levy, unlike India.

Myth: The Central government decides the rate of property tax

Fact: Land in India is a state subject and district municipal bodies assist them in collection of property tax. Typically, urban-local authorities are responsible for evaluating your property and collecting taxes accordingly. Your property tax amount includes utility bills such as power, water and drainage.

Myth: I can in any circumstance avail of a rebate if I am a senior citizen, a woman or a differently-abled person.

Fact: This is true as long as your property is not given on rent — this means the property must be self-occupied for you to claim rebates. You can also enjoy concessions if your property falls in a location that is prone to natural calamities or if you are a former staff of the Indian military services. In case you have rented out your property, you will have to pay taxes under the provisions of the ‘income from house property’ of the Income-Tax Act.

Myth: I can get away with defaults by paying a fine

Fact: Well, most of the times. Municipal bodies impose an interest on dues as penalty for non-payment. However, non-payment of property taxes for a long time might also force the municipal body taking over the property and selling it in the market to recover dues. There have been many such instances in major cities where a municipal corporation ended up auctioning the property to recover property tax dues. In February 2019, for instance, the Pune Municipal Corporation seized as many as 600 properties with a market value of Rs 500 crore over non-payment of property tax dues.

All You Need To Know About Partial Occupancy Certificate

Under-construction properties offer you the luxury to invest in real estate at a comparatively low price. They also give you the option of living in a brand-new house, something that a resale property does not offer. However, to be able to make the best use of your investment, you need to be well versed with several civic, legal, technical and financial aspects. It is in this context that you must know what role partial occupancy certificates have in the purchase process.

Buyers are aware that they cannot occupy a unit in a housing project, till the time the project has received an occupancy certificate (OC). Now, housing projects that involve large-scale developments, are typically built in a phased manner. Once a part of the project is complete, the developer has the right to apply for a partial occupancy certificate (POC) with the local authority.

For example, if a realtor is building a large housing project that involves construction of, say, eight towers, he could apply for a POC as soon as the work on the first tower is complete. Now, the question that arises, is whether it is legal to occupy a unit, which has received a POC and not an OC?

The answer is that you are well within your right to occupy a unit in a tower for which your developer has received a POC. However, the builder must apply for an OC after the completion of the entire project.

Here are some important things about POC that you need to keep in mind:

Home loan: Unless your developer has a tie-up with it, a bank would not be willing to issue you loan for a project that has received only a POC. If you are picking a fresh unit out of the unsold units lying with a developer, make sure he has in his possession an OC and not just a POC.

Validity: The validity of the POC expires as soon as the project is complete—technically, a builder must complete the project for which he has received a POC within seven years. Once that happens, the developer must apply for an OC with the development authority within 30 days. However, a POC is no guarantee that the developer will be able to get the OC too, as this would depend on several factors.

Ownership documents: While you will be able to apply for utilities using the POC, the authorities may not sanction you the documents that prove your ownership of the property. In Bengaluru, for instance, khata certificates by the city’s development body are not issued till you present an OC.

Project progress: Buyers that have been given a POC must closely monitor the progress of the project and ask the developer to issue the OC, as soon as the project is completed in entirety.

Possession: A POC gives the developer a chance to offer for possession the units that lay in a finished tower. If such was not the case, the buyer of tower A would have to wait to get possession till, say, Tower D was completed in a project. Hence, this arrangement works well for both, the buyer and the realtor.

It has been noticed that realtors also insist on buyers taking possession of units, saying they have received a POC for the tower. Upon arrival, buyers find their accommodations unfit for living. First of all, the developer can in no way force you to take possession of what is uninhabitable by standard definition. This must be brought to the notice of the Real Estate Regulatory Authority in your state.

Common facilities: While the law says that the housing units of a partially completed project cannot be handed over without giving the occupants access to common facilities, there have been several instances where buyers have to wait for long to be able to use common facilities.

5 Things An NRI Should Keep In Mind While Making A Will

 There is a certain way in which one would like one’s wealth to be distributed. This makes it important for all of us who have the privilege to own assets of any kind to create a Will. However, for certain people, it is even more important to create a Will. Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) are one such kind. Considering your assets are located in different nations and across investment options, Will creation would mean you are creating for yourself a database of all your properties in one place.


At the same time, you are also foretelling the manner in which they are to be divided after you. In the event of an NRI dying without creating a Will, his inheritors might not even be aware of the wealth possessed by the deceased. All these reasons make it mandatory for NRIs to create a will. Before you do that, here are certain points that you like to consider:

1. You do not need to create multiple Wills because your materials assets are spread across countries. A single Will suffice created keeping in mind the local law applying to different properties in different countries will do. However, there is an exception to this rule. In case you own a property in the United Arab Emirates, you will have to create a separate Will document and register it with the Dubai International Financial Centre. For clarity’s sake, you could, however, go for creating separate Wills for assets in different countries.

2. Your Will must be drafted keeping in mind the succession law that applies to you according to your religion. While the Hindu Succession Act covers people from Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism, succession laws for Muslims and Christians are different.

3. Registering your Will is not a must. It would be valid even otherwise. However, to ward off any legal complexities in the future, one must register it. In case you are registering your Will in a country where you now live, approach the local embassy to do so.

4. It is your personal choice how you want to distribute your wealth after you are gone. You may, by and large, be aware of the legal aspects of this, too. However, it would be the best to take assistance from experts when you are creating a Will. Since your assets are located in different countries there might arise certain complexities in the matter you might be aware of. Also be mindful of the fact that errors in your Will would lead to legal hassles for your successors.

5. While creating a Will at an early stage is part of sound financial planning, it is also advisable to review your Will from time to time. As you keep adding more assets, it should reflect in your Will. In case changes have to be made in the documents, you will have to revoke your previous Will and register the new one all over again.

Cupboard Design For Bedrooms: Stylish Finishes

Veneer Finish Cupboard Design

In addition to being one of the most affordable solutions for finishing your closet, a veneer is the most prefered material because it can imitate the cosy feel of genuine wood. You may use it to match the decor of your space because it is created from thin sheets of natural wood and has a range of designs. For example, a light-coloured veneer will look great in a Scandinavian-style home. A deeper colour may work better in a traditional home. Additionally, this material requires routine polishing for maintenance.

Laminate Finish Cupboard Design

Due to its wide variety of colours and textures, laminate is quite popular. They are available in matte and glossy finishes. While laminates offer benefits such being scratch-resistant and simple to clean, their brittleness prevents them from being durable. The entire sheet has to be replaced once a section chips off.

Mirror Finish Cupboard Design

Mirrors reflect light and provide the impression that the room is more significant than it is. They are particularly well suited for covering the surfaces of cabinets and wardrobes in small spaces.

Glass Finish Cupboard Design

Installing glass on the surface of the wardrobe is a stylish design choice that gives the space a feeling of lightness. Among other variations, glass can be found in transparent, opaque, printed, frosted, and stained forms. You may select the kind that best matches the decor based on the design style of the area. Make sure everything inside your cupboards is organised if you utilise transparent glass. The mess will be visible otherwise.

Opaque or Coloured Glass Finish

For a contemporary wardrobe, coloured or opaque glass is a more practical alternative to plain glass. The colours may be matched to the room’s colour scheme. The material also reflects light, enhancing the room’s brightness and airiness.

Solid wood Finish Cupboard Design

Nothing beats the warmth of wood. Solid wood adds a charming element and is quite versatile. It suits the theme of any room, whether it’s modern, country-style or rustic. Although wood is more expensive than other materials, it is highly durable. You will have to use just a coat of polish to look as good as new.

Metal Finish Cupboard Design

Brushed metal has been in the Indian households since long, just as old iron almirahs. While they might not match the decor in a modern home, they will be the perfect addition to an industrial-style room.

Tips And Tricks For Buying Your Dream Home In Thane

Buying a home is one of the most essential financial decisions you’ll make, as well as one of the most exciting experiences you will have in your life. Buying your dream property in Thane isn’t difficult, however, there are a few things to keep in mind. In the following post, we’ll go over some of the things to think about.

In any case, purchasing a 2 BHK flat in Thane on a single salary can be difficult and intimidating for some people. Even when you’re buying a home, homeownership on a single wage is very much possible with little financial awareness.

So, Are you looking to buy a flat in thane?

Here Are Some Points to Consider Before You Begin:

Financial Planning

Assessing your present financial responsibilities, such as previous loans, insurance amounts. And so on, is the first step toward good financial planning for your dream home. This will provide you with an accurate view of your genuine earnings. Your budget will be controlled by the quantity of EMI you can afford to cover and your monthly costs. In addition, when finalizing your budget and loan amount, you should account for hidden costs such as registrations, stamp duty, and maintenance.

Once you’ve agreed on a loan amount, determine what you’ll be able to put down as a down payment. They typically vary from 15% to 20% of the value of the property and give the bank confidence in your credibility. You could also choose to take out a loan with no down payment, but your regular EMIs will rise as a result.

How to Improve Your Credit Score

This is very important in your credit application. When you apply for a loan, the lender will check your credit rating because it is a great predictor of the individual’s credit quality. Before applying for a loan, check your credit score with any of the credit agencies such as CIBIL, Experian, and others to confirm that it is in the good range.

Make a plan for one down payment in your budget

The government of India teams allows for an 80% mortgage, which means you’ll have had to pay 20% upfront in your home. You should start saving as quickly as possible if you want to buy your ideal home. However, even a 20% saving is significant and not always possible. Additional possibilities for getting a down payment on a home loan for new projects in Thane do exist, although.

Have you recently purchased any high-priced items and signed up for Amazon prime video? Trying to keep track of your income and expenditure can help you in a greater understanding of your financial plan. Thus, rather than paying for just a gym membership, one can either avoid all those needless costs and achieve cost-cutting success, or you can locate alternate sources for your needs, such as: If you spend too much money purchasing meals online, try to reduce it by cooking at home and working out at home. It is the most effective way to save for a down payment on a 2 bhk flat in thane. And it is necessary to practice financial discipline.

Go for The most Suitable EMI Plan for You

This may be the most important thing to consider when applying for a home loan on a single salary. Calculate how much you’ll be able to pay each month on your home loan. Your property loan should not exceed 40% of your net income to maintain your household functioning properly. Try increasing your EMI to acquire a shorter loan term if you have extra money aside from your monthly salary. Also, keep in mind that the best duration for a home mortgage is 15-20 years.

Changes in home loan policies, mortgage rate volatility and government relief are all things to monitor. You’ll have had to pay EMIs monthly, which is likely to be much greater than your current rent. Hence, are using an online EMI calculator to decide how much money you’ll have to set away each month to pay back the mortgage. If people educate themselves on what is a good fit for themselves, they can get a 2 BHK flat in Thane.

Invest in an Insurance Policy plan

You and your family will require financial insurance to cover your debt in the event of unemployment, injury, or death. Premium plans are available for both short and long durations to safeguard single-income investments from unforeseeable occurrences that could result in non-payment.

Getting insurance coverage for your 2 BHK apartment is usually a good choice. Because you and your family may require financial protection in the event that you lose your job, have an accident, or die suddenly, your loan may be covered in Thane. You can choose from short-term and long-term premium plans that safeguard you from unforeseen events.

NOCs You Need To Buy A Flat In A Housing Society

 It would be wrong to assume housing societies are preferred by buyers only in big cities where space is premium and buying an independent residence might not be an option. Even in Tier-II cities of India, group housing is gaining popularity for the benefits it offers homebuyers that are otherwise not available. For one, living in a housing society means there is round-the-clock security service available for your benefit—in an independent home, you will have to pay a bomb to be able to do that. There are so many other pressing arguments that could be made in favour of investing in housing society flats. Those who have already formed an opinion in favour of society flats and are eager to invest, must now note that they would need to acquire a number of NOCs, the short form used for no-objection certificates, to buy such a property.


Let us have a look at those documents.

One of the many benefits of living in a housing society is that you get to enjoy a great number of amenities there. However, to provide those amenities to you, the developer needs to acquire several NOCs himself—from the construction stage to the handover-phase, builders have to get at least 50 approvals from various government agencies. If your developer does not have an NOC from the electricity department, for instance, he would have to largely depend on private sources to supply power. The same is true of water, too. While all these things could be privately managed, they would shoot up the bill for the developer who would pass it on to you in the form of hiked maintenance charge. Make sure your developer has all the approvals in place and there are no ongoing issues between him and any government departments.

About under-construction property

In case of an under-construction property, an NOC must also be taken from the banks that are the financers of the project. This would ensure they will not be able to challenge the sale in future. In light of several recent developments where builders have gone insolvent and banks are dragging them to the court to recover money, this becomes an all-important document. In case of any future trouble between the two parties, this document would safeguard your interest as the buyer.

Importance of RWA

The law makes it mandatory for the housing societies to form a residents’ welfare association. These legal bodies enjoy great power in terms of sale and purchase of property. As a home buyer, you will also need to get some NOCs from these bodies as well.
