US born children education in India

[harshalb]

I have a US born daughter with US passport and PIO. If we move to India, I heard that some specific schools charge NRI fees, is this true? Does that mean that the general schools do not have a higher fees for NRI kids?

Secondly if she studies in the Indian system upto 10 + 2 and wants to seek admission to engineering or medical, then under which quota will she be considered? NRI or general?

The problem is there are many like me who have kids born in Us but they live in India and earn an Indian income. Any higher fees in schools or colleges for them is completely unfair, specially just because their kids were born in the US and US considers them its citizens and India does not allow dual citizenship

I have been reading various forums for this information and what I colcluded is as follows:

1. US born baby with US Passport + PIO Card (or OCI) is considered NRI in india. and they have to pay NRI fees and gets admission in NRI quota. I think its around 5%, but varies.
If Baby renounces US citizenship (only after age of 18) and acquires Indian citizenship then they'll be at par with indian citizens in every sector education, govt jobs etc.
2. US born baby with Indian Passport is considered Indian citizen and gets all benefits in india.

I hope this answers your query.

I am not a lawyer and above information is only my personal knowledge and opinion.

After going through matter I felt that Govt. has some unfairness. Thank God! I was not in such situation. My child is born in India and studying in Vivero preschools in Mumbai but my sympathy is still with harshalb

US citizens will always have advantages in US universities, but Indian citizens will always have advantages in Indian universities. But another point is after the child reaches 18, the person (now an adult) can make another choice of citizenship because at that age, the US allows renunciation of citizenship.
