Moving back to India after living abroad can feel overwhelming — not because you lack information, but because everything feels scattered and out of sequence. The most common question NRIs ask isn’t “Should I move back to India?” It’s “Where do I even start — and what am I missing?”
In this episode, I walk you through why moving back to India feels so stressful for NRIs and how missing just one critical step — like RNOR tax planning, banking conversions, or documentation — can cost you â‚č20–30 lakhs in avoidable mistakes. After speaking with hundreds of families who moved back to India from the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and other countries, one pattern was clear: 👉 NRIs don’t lack information. They lack structure. That’s why we built the Desi Return Planner — a free, personalized, step-by-step “Move Back to India” action plan designed specifically for NRIs.
