- What is an NRO Account
What is an NRO Account?
A Non-Resident Ordinary (NRO) Account is a popular way for many Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) to manage their deposits or income earned in India such as dividends, pension, rent, etc. This account allows you to receive funds in either Indian or foreign currency. However, only Indian currency can be withdrawn as NRO Accounts are kept in Indian currency and cannot be freely repatriated into any foreign currency.
You can apply for an NRO Account jointly with an Indian resident on Former or Survivor basis only. If you wish, you can also open an NRO Account with another Non-Resident Indian. Also, you can very easily to transfer money from your current NRE account to your NRO Account. However, the interest you earn in this account is subject to Tax Deducted at Source (TDS).
