What is Form FC-GPR?

FC-GPR is the RBI report a company files after issuing shares or other equity instruments to a non-resident. It must reach the RBI through your bank within 30 days of allotment.

What are the time limits?

Shares must be allotted within 60 days of receiving the foreign money; otherwise it must be refunded within 15 days. Form FC-GPR is filed within 30 days of the allotment date. The company also files PAS-3 with the ROC within 15 days of allotment.

How is FC-GPR filed?

The company registers on the RBI's FIRMS portal (Entity Master and business-user registration), then files FC-GPR in the Single Master Form. The authorised dealer bank that received the money verifies it and forwards it to the RBI, which acknowledges or returns it for corrections.

Does my investment event need FC-GPR reporting, and which records are required to complete it?
Form FC-GPR is needed when an Indian company issues equity shares, compulsorily convertible preference shares or debentures, or share warrants to a person resident outside India; it is filed on the RBI’s FIRMS portal within 30 days of allotment. A transfer of existing shares between a resident and a non-resident is reported in Form FC-TRS instead, within 60 days, and convertible notes, shares issued to non-resident employees and downstream investment have their own forms. Records needed: the bank’s KYC report on the remitter, the FIRC or proof of inward remittance, the FEMA valuation certificate (not more than 90 days old on the date of investment), the board resolution and list of allottees, and a company secretary’s certificate of compliance. A late filing can usually be regularised with a late submission fee.
