Yes, an NRI can invest in direct plans of mutual funds. An NRI will have to issue a rupee cheque from his NRE, NRO bank account in India. He may also send a Rupee cheque from abroad payable in a bank in India. However, for an NRI to invest, it is mandatory that he maintains a bank account in India.
Several financial institutions are not dealing with US-based NRIs because of Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act.
