FROM KNOWLEDGE TO CROSS-BORDER ADVISORY

Move From Understanding Individual Rules to Connecting the Complete NRI Financial Picture

After completing the course, learners should be better equipped to approach NRI financial situations systematically. Instead of looking at taxation, FEMA, banking, investments and succession separately, they learn to connect these areas and identify the right questions before approaching a cross-border financial decision.

Think Beyond Tax

Understand how taxation connects with FEMA, banking, investments, repatriation and estate planning.

Assess Before You Advise

Learn to first evaluate residential status, source of income, transaction type, jurisdiction and financial objective before considering the appropriate course of action.

Handle NRI Conversations with Structure

Develop a framework for discussing common NRI concerns around taxation, investments, property, remittances and returning to India.

Connect Compliance with Financial Planning

Recognise how KYC, documentation, tax filing, FEMA requirements and remittance rules can influence financial decisions.

Plan Across Life Stages

Understand the financial implications of moving abroad, living as an NRI, managing Indian assets and eventually returning to India.

Take a Family-Wealth View

Look beyond individual investments to understand succession, inheritance, insurance and long-term family wealth considerations.

Why this program

Go Beyond “NRI Taxation.” Learn the Full Financial Journey.

Know the Client's Status First

Understand NRI, PIO and OCI concepts and how residential status under the Income Tax Act and FEMA can lead to different consequences.

Decode Cross-Border Tax

Build clarity around Indian taxable income, return filing, TDS, capital gains, DTAA relief and documentation.

Understand Money Movement

Learn the practical framework around NRE, NRO and FCNR accounts, remittances, repatriation and Forms 15CA/15CB.

Plan NRI Wealth

Explore equities, mutual funds, property, partnerships, insurance, GIFT City, long-term wealth creation and portfolio choices.

Protect Family Wealth

Understand Wills, probate, succession certificates, nominations and estate-planning considerations for NRI families.

Manage Life Transitions

Learn what changes when an Indian moves abroad, becomes an NRI, returns to India or plans a permanent homecoming.

An NRI's Financial Life Doesn't Fit Inside One Country.

A salary may be earned abroad. Property may be held in India. Investments may sit in two jurisdictions. Family may live in a third. Tax residency can change, FEMA status can change differently, and the same transaction can trigger banking, tax, documentation and succession questions at once.

The challenge is not simply knowing tax. It is knowing how tax, FEMA, banking, investments, property and family wealth connect across borders.

This program is designed to help learners understand those connections—so they can approach NRI financial decisions with a structured framework instead of treating every issue as an isolated transaction.

Build Skills for Real-World NRI Financial Planning

Residential Status Assessment

Understand the distinction between residential status under Indian income-tax rules and FEMA and its relevance to financial decisions.

NRI Taxation & Compliance

Build working knowledge of taxable income, return filing, TDS, capital gains, deductions and other common NRI tax considerations.

DTAA & Cross-Border Taxation

Understand the role of tax treaties, double-tax relief mechanisms and supporting documentation.

NRI Banking & Repatriation

Develop clarity around NRE, NRO and FCNR accounts, permissible transactions, remittances and repatriation considerations.

Investment Planning for NRIs

Understand key considerations across direct equity, mutual funds, property, business structures, insurance, PMS and other wealth-building avenues covered in the program.

Property & Real-Estate Planning

Understand important considerations relating to acquisition, sale, gifting and inheritance of property by NRIs.
