Rent received by a Non-Resident Indian (NRI) from a residential property located in India is indeed subject to Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) under Section 195 of the Income Tax Act. There is no minimum threshold limit for the rent amount that triggers TDS. The applicable TDS rate is 30% of the rental income, plus a 4% education cess, making the effective rate 31.2%.
