About this session

90-Minute Live Interactive Webinar | Limited Seats

Thinking about moving back to India? Let's talk about what it's really like.

We're Swathi and Bharath, founders of Returning NRIs. After spending 17 years in the US, we moved back to India with our two kids.

We've experienced the excitement, uncertainty, challenges, and surprises that come with starting over in India. Through Returning NRIs, we've also connected with hundreds of families who are planning their move or have already returned.

This isn't another webinar that tells you why you should move back to India.

We're not here to convince you to return or stay abroad. We're here to share the real picture so you can decide what's right for your family.

What we'll talk about

  1. Money & Financial Readiness: How much is enough? Living costs, savings, investments, and financial surprises.
  2. Jobs & Careers: India's job market, salary expectations, work culture, and career transitions.
  3. Kids & Schools: Admissions, education choices, and how children adjust.
  4. Housing & Lifestyle: Renting vs. buying, choosing where to live, and everyday realities.
  5. Family & Emotional Adjustments: Parents, relationships, reverse culture shock, and what we miss about the US.
  6. Planning Your Move: Timelines, common mistakes, and things we wish we'd known earlier.

What makes this different?

✅ Unbiased: No agenda to convince you to move back.

✅ Raw & Real: The good, the bad, and the uncomfortable truths.

✅ Experience Based: Our own journey and real stories from the Returning NRIs community.

✅ Interactive: Plenty of time for your questions, not just a presentation.

Who should join?

Whether you're seriously planning to return, still debating the decision, or already preparing for the move, this conversation is for you.

90 minutes | Live Q&A | Limited seats

We're keeping the group small so we can have meaningful conversations and address as many questions as possible.

Our goal is simple: Help you make an informed decision with realistic expectations, not just excitement or fear.

Looking forward to connecting!

Thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us! 😊 I genuinely enjoyed our conversation and really appreciate how warmly and thoughtfully you guided me through my Return to India planning.

I recently had a call with Swathi and Bharath, the hosts of Return to NRI, and it was incredibly useful. They openly shared how they planned and made their own move, and gave practical guidance on managing finances through the transition. What stood out most was their honesty. They are just as transparent with their own families, sharing the real facts, the trade-offs, and the numbers rather than a polished highlight reel. That kind of candor is rare and makes their advice trustworthy. If you’re thinking about moving back, I’d recommend talking to them.

We had a really positive experience with Swati and Bharat. From the start, they created a space that felt easy to talk. No pressure, no clock watching, just honest conversation. They shared the practical stuff, like school options and moving back to India, but also told us what worked and what to watch out for from their own journey, which made things feel more real and less overwhelming. They took time to answer properly, checked what we actually needed. It felt like talking to sensible friends who have been through it. If you are considering moving back to india, we'd definitely suggest speaking with them. It just made a complicated decision feel calmer and more manageable.

We had a call with Bharath and it felt like speaking to a friend and conversation was really smooth and at the same time in a structured manner. Some of our confusions are clarified and we came out of the call with clear understanding on next steps.
