Documentation says (Terminating an Instance), Terminated instances temporarily remain in the list of instances with the status Terminated.
Is there any particular time limit for the terminated instance to be removed from the console?

Terminated instances remain visible after termination (for approximately one hour).
You cannot delete the terminated instance entry yourself. After an instance is terminated, resources such as tags and volumes are gradually disassociated from the instance and may no longer be visible on the terminated instance after a short while.
Resolution. As part of an Amazon EC2 instance termination, the data on any instance store volumes associated with that instance is deleted. By default, the root Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume is automatically deleted.
The billing stops when the terminate API call succeeds. The instance should go to terminating while it cleans up resources and shuts things down. Currently it is configured so that once it has successfully transitioned to terminated it will remain visible in the console for around 12 hours.
