What is FEMA compliance?
The Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (FEMA) and its rules govern every cross-border investment and remittance. Most foreign investment needs no prior approval, but each step must be priced correctly and reported to the RBI within fixed time limits.
How does foreign investment come in?
Foreign direct investment comes in under the Foreign Exchange Management (Non-Debt Instruments) Rules, 2019, either under the automatic route or with government approval, within the sectoral caps. Investment from an entity of a country sharing a land border with India, or whose beneficial owner is from such a country, needs government approval.
Shares must be issued within 60 days of receiving the money, at not less than fair value, and reported in Form FC-GPR within 30 days of allotment.
What has to be reported to the RBI?
Reports are filed on the RBI's FIRMS portal through the company's authorised dealer bank: FC-GPR for fresh issues, FC-TRS for transfers between residents and non-residents, DI for downstream investment, and forms for convertible notes and LLP investments. Every company with foreign investment files the annual return on Foreign Liabilities and Assets (FLA) by 15 July.
