I have some FD's in NRO acct where the bank takes the TDS , I would like to apply for "avoid double taxation" which requires PAN card. also I will be buying property in India very soon.

I have visited the following website to apply PAN for NRI .

The problem I have is I am not sure what I need to fill for assessing officer section as it has only indian centers listed in the guidelines .

----NRO account requires TDS to be deducted on the interest earned. TDS is deducted @ 30% from the interest earned from NRO account. Some surcharge is also deducted from NRO deposit or From NRO saving account interest and total TDS deduction is about 33.99%.
You can get some of the TDS paid back by filing tax return in India and claiming a refund and for that you need PAN Card.

I don’t understand why you send money to your NRO account from out of India and why not send it to NRE account.


also I will be buying property in India very soon.
------ at the time of property registration you will need PAN card and pay the builder/seller through Check from NRE account.
