The world is getting smaller and smaller day by day. With increased opportunities of work cropping up world wide more and more Indians are seeking their fortunes overseas. But at the end of the day these non resident Indians (NRIs) feel the need to invest in India and reap the rewards of the country of their birth going through a boom phase. Let’s take a look as to how NRI’s can make investments in India.
NRIs can make investments in all the investments options which are available to Resident Indians. However, Persons of Indian Origin can only make investments in non-agricultural businesses in the country.

NRIs can invest in shares and stocks by Directly subscribing to shares and debentures of Indian companies on a repatriable or non-repatriable basis –

(a) Through the Portfolio Investment Scheme.

(b) Through government securities, certificates and units of UTI through remittances from their domestic accounts or remittances from abroad.

NRIs need a certain type of account to make payments in India they are NRE account (non resident external rupee account), NRO account (non resident ordinary rupee account) and an FCNR account (Foreign currency non resident account).

Being a NRI has other NRI benefits also as there is a 24% scheme. This is where Indian companies, except those engaged in agricultural activities, can issue up to 24% of their shares and debentures to NRIs.

Also there is 40% scheme which allows or purchase of equity, preference shares and convertible debentures not exceeding 51% of the face value of each issue. Repatriation of up to 40% of the new issue is allowed. Under this scheme, NRIs can invest in new projects or in expansion and diversification projects of existing companies.

NRIs can also invest in Bank deposits, Secondary markets through portfolio investment in equity market share, new issue share/convertible debentures, non convertible debentures, mutual funds and bonds provided the amount is invested out of an NRI accounts, proprietary and partnership concern in India and investments in immovable property provided that the amount is not invested in the purchase of agricultural land and payment is made thought exiting NRI accounts.
