It lists permissible credits (inward remittances, legitimate Indian dues, sale proceeds, resident gifts/loans within liberalised limits) and debits (local rupee payments, remittance of current income, transfers/repatriation for bona fide purposes subject to an annual ceiling and tax compliance). Repatriation of sale proceeds and balances requires documentary evidence, tax payment, and is subject to nationality-based restrictions and Reserve Bank permissions in certain cases.
