19 November 2025 NRIs can claim indexation on sale of long-term property.

Section 48 treats residents and NRIs the same for indexation.

Receipt of token money before 23-07-2024 does NOT affect indexation.

Full LTCG = Sale price – Indexed cost.

TDS under Section 195 may be high unless CA certificate is obtained.
