Overseas Direct Investment (ODI) Advisory & Compliance
End-to-end support for Indian entities and resident individuals making or maintaining overseas investments—from eligibility and financial commitment to remittance, reporting, annual performance and restructuring.
Trusted Across Diverse Business Sectors
Build the overseas investment on a permitted route with complete ownership, funding and reporting records.
ODI compliance covers more than the first remittance. Acquisition, capital support, loans, guarantees, restructuring, disinvestment and annual reporting must be tracked across the investment life cycle.
Eligibility & Structure Review
Assess investor, foreign entity, activity, ownership and permitted investment route.
Financial Commitment Support
Coordinate equity, debt, guarantees and other commitment components.
Remittance & Initial Reporting
Prepare documentation and support authorised-dealer and RBI-system filings.
Ongoing ODI Compliance
Track annual performance, additional funding, changes, restructuring and exit.
ODI should be managed as a continuing regulatory relationship, not a one-time outward remittance.
We reconcile overseas corporate records, Indian books, bank evidence and regulatory filings.
Funding and guarantees are reviewed against the approved structure and financial-commitment position.
Late or inconsistent historic reporting is identified early, particularly before additional investment or disinvestment.

What should you prepare for the initial review?
Do not make additional funding or guarantees without checking cumulative financial commitment and filing status.
Banks may pause new transactions when past ODI records, annual reports or ownership data are incomplete. A pre-transaction health check can prevent execution delays and reveal regularisation needs.
