Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Advisory & RBI Reporting
Integrated support for foreign direct investment in India, covering entry route, sector-specific conditions, pricing guidelines, investment instruments, capital receipt, share allotment, RBI reporting and ongoing FDI compliance. Our approach also addresses applicable FEMA compliance, transaction documentation and regulatory reporting requirements for foreign investment into Indian companies and LLPs.
Trusted Across Diverse Business Sectors
Bring foreign capital into India through a permitted structure with clean corporate and regulatory records.
FDI compliance begins before funds are received. The investor, sector, entry route, beneficial ownership, investment instrument, pricing, allotment and RBI reporting requirements should be assessed and sequenced alongside company law, FEMA and banking requirements.
Entry Route & Sector Review
Assess the FDI entry route, sectoral caps, applicable conditions, investor eligibility and government approval requirements.
Instrument & Pricing Support
Support equity and eligible capital instruments, valuation requirements, pricing guidelines and transaction structuring under applicable FEMA regulations.
Capital Receipt & Issue Reporting
Coordinate capital receipt, bank KYC, share allotment, FC-GPR filing, RBI reporting and related corporate compliance requirements.
Transfer & Downstream Compliance
Assist with FC-TRS reporting, LLP foreign investment, downstream investment, ownership changes and continuing foreign investment compliance.
A clean FDI transaction connects the subscription agreement, valuation, bank evidence, corporate approvals and RBI filing without contradiction.
We map the investment from term sheet through capital receipt and final shareholding.
Beneficial ownership, sector conditions and downstream implications are examined before execution.
Tax, transfer pricing and future repatriation considerations are flagged so the capital structure remains workable after investment.
