The presidential election in the United States has been ongoing for some months now and the moment of truth is just around the corner as America votes on November 3rd, 2020.
On one side, the Democratic presidential nominee has laid out his plans to escalate the taxes on gifts and inheritance to family members. He has signaled that he is willing to shoot up the estate taxes, reduce the tax credit limit and change the taxation of capital assets upon death.
If the estate tax and gift tax exemptions are affected, what will it mean for Non-resident Indians (NRI), will Indian OCI cards holders have to re-think how to inherit wealth in India.
