Under the Foreign Exchange Management (Borrowing and Lending in Rupees) Regulations, 2000, Authorised Dealers are allowed to grant loans in rupees to Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) (i) against the security of shares or immovable property in India for personal or business purposes and (ii) housing loans against the security of houses/flats to be acquired for acquisition of residential accommodation in India.
RBI has now decided to allow Authorised Dealers to grant rupee loans to NRIs as per policy laid down by the bank’s Board of Directors, other than for purposes specified below. The repayment of the loan may be made by debit to NRE/FCNR/NRO accounts of the non-resident borrowers or out of inward remittances by the borrowers. The quantum of loan, rate of interest, margins etc. on such loans may be decided by the Authorised Dealers based on relevant directives issued by the Department of Banking Operations and Development in this regard.
Authorised Dealers may ensure that the proceeds of rupee loan are not utilised for any of the following activities:
The business of chit fund, or
Nidhi Company, or
Agricultural or plantation activities or in real estate business, or construction of farm houses, or
Trading in Transferable Development Rights (TDRs), or
Investment in capital market including margin trading and derivatives.
