Can an NRI sell inherited agricultural land in India?

Yes, an NRI can sell agricultural land that they inherited, but with an important condition: the buyer must be a person resident in India. An NRI cannot sell agricultural land to another NRI or to an OCI holder, only to a resident Indian. This keeps the land within the resident pool. Before selling, make sure the inheritance is fully done in the records, meaning mutation is complete and the title is clear in your name, otherwise the sale can get stuck. On the money side, the sale will attract capital gains tax in India, and there are rules about how much of the sale proceeds you can send abroad and through which account. Many NRIs handle the actual signing through a registered power of attorney given to a trusted relative, since flying down for registration is costly. Get the sale deed, the capital gains computation, and the repatriation done with a CA and lawyer, because mistakes here are expensive to fix later. This is general information, not legal or tax advice.
