If you are an NRI, PIO, or OCI, you have the permission to buy or sell any commercial or residential property in India. The purchaser and the seller can also be an Indian resident or an NRI, PIO, or OCI. However, in the case of a farmhouse or agricultural land, the purchaser cannot be a foreign citizen of Indian origin. These properties can only be sold to Indian citizens.
