Non-resident rupee account rules distinguish eligibility, tenure, interest treatment and repatriability from NRO account regulation. The document distinguishes a Special Non-Resident Rupee Account, available to non-residents with business interests for bona fide rupee transactions and typically non-interest bearing, time-limited and repatriable, from a Non-Resident Ordinary (NRO) Account, which accepts various credited receipts, may bear interest, lacks the SNRR tenure restriction, and is generally non-repatriable except for current income and specified permitted remittances.
