NRIs
For over 32 million Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) worldwide, managing bureaucratic paperwork related to India remains a persistent challenge. Whether it's applying for an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card, updating a PAN card, or managing visa renewals, navigating India’s documentation processes can be complex and time-consuming.
According to a 2023 report by the Ministry of External Affairs, delays in processing and a lack of streamlined services have led to a surge in grievances among the global Indian diaspora. Particularly for OCI applications, which grant long-term residency and travel rights in India, documentation errors and procedural delays remain major pain points. An estimated 25% of OCI applications filed annually encounter processing delays or rejections, often due to documentation errors or misinterpretations of eligibility criteria.
