What do you mean trading platform ? My investments so far are into fixed deposits, real estate (bought piece of land, and a house). I might look for more options an year from now..

Following

ICICI direct, Sharekhan, etc. ?

You can invest after via NRO or NRE account. There are some restrictions on DMAT if you declare yourself as NRI. Please contact bank for more details.

IciCi Direct and all trading platforms are not legal for any NRIs. Also, please look up PFIC as well for Tax treatment. I did some research and found that we can only do "offline" investments through "Investment Accounts" that are offered to NRO and NRE accounts. Many folks just assumed that we can open ICICI Direct account and trade ..And that's illegal.

Any other suggestions besides trading him in lbs

My partner and I are in the process of buying a PHEV that qualifies for the full non-refundable federal tax credit. We will both owe taxes in excess of the current $7,500 cap (will see if that increases with the new budget bill). If we both own the car (i.e. both names on the title), how do we manage filing for the tax credit when filing separately? Do we just pick one of us to file? Is there guidance on splitting the credit across owners? Does it matter what order our names are on the title?
