19 January 2026 If the payment goes to the lady investor herself, the question doesn't arise. In the adverse case no tax liability of what-so-ever over nominee (even if NRI)
Secondly, she can gift any amount to her granddaughter without any tax liability on either if she deposits the amount to NRO account.
