NRI wants to purchase a residential property in India.
Please narrate what all things needs to be taken care in respect of above.
Is any RBI permission required for the same?

An assessee held certain shares as capital assets. It was converted into stock in trade on 01.04.2006. Cost of acquisition was Rs.20.00 Lacs and f.m.v. as on date of conversion was Rs.18.00 Lacs. As per section 45(2) the capital gain is Nil (Loss of Rs. 2.00 Lacs). The assessee converted these shares on cost of acquisition of Rs.20.00 Lacs. These shares were then sold for Rs. 25.00 Lacs. Assessee declared a Profit from business of Rs. 5.00 Lacs (Rs. 25.00-Rs.20.00 Lacs). The A.O. says that capital assets has to be converted at f.m.v. only and thus there is a profit of Rs. 7.00 Lacs (Rs. 25.00 lacs - Rs. 18.00 Lacs). Is the contention of A.O. correct? Is it necessary to convert capital assets into stock in trade at f.m.v. only? or it is an option available to assessee? Can tax be levied on a profit which never accrued to assessee. His actual gain is 5.00 Lacs and he paid tax on 5.00 lacs?

PLEASE DO INFORM WHEATHER THE PAN LIMITATION (i.e 70% and 90%)PRESCRIBED BY LAW is really mandatory or there is some way out to file the return if PAN are less than the requirement.
