𝟏. 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐞𝐫

Selling property in India has always been a compliance-heavy process for NRIs.

This budget finally removes one of the biggest obstacles.

Resident buyers no longer need a TAN to deduct TDS when purchasing property from an NRI.

From 𝐎𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟏, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔, TDS can be deposited using a simple 𝐏𝐀𝐍-𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐧.

This reduces buyer hesitation and makes your Indian real estate 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐝.

𝟐. 𝐋𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐓𝐂𝐒 𝐨𝐧 𝐑𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 & 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥

𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐬: TCS reduced to 2% (earlier 5–20%).

𝐄𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 & 𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬: TCS reduced to 2% (earlier 5%).

Lower TCS means 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐝 with the tax department and better liquidity for NRIs.

You can update your ITR even after reassessment begins by paying a 10% additional tax.

𝟓. 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐆𝐂𝐂𝐬 & 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐬

For those planning to set up GCCs in India:

A uniform 15.5% profit margin for IT services brings tax certainty.
