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.

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.

What goes with the form?

The bank's foreign inward remittance certificate and KYC report on the investor, the board resolution for allotment, a fair-value certificate under the pricing rules, a declaration by the company and a company secretary's certificate on Companies Act compliance. Errors in pricing or dates are the usual reasons forms are returned; late filing attracts a late-submission fee.
