13 November 2013 Ajay, my client is planning to start Full Fledged Money Changer ( Remittance )Business,we had gone through the RBI documentation...Being an Indian registered company we have to Apply for FFMC license from RBI.. and I have few questions about the operations, Please will you be able to answer me.

1. From fema-circular-no-18-dated-november-27-2009--2584 - under 3.1.a - it Says " system envisages a tieup between a reputed money transfer company abroad called Overseas Principals and AP i.e. Indian Agent.... which means as we an Indian Entity - this regulation will not allow us to do a direct inward remittance business with NRI's in Abroad.? - is my understanding correct.

2. As an indian Entity, is there any other way that we can Buy Foriegn currency & Exchange them as part remittance business.

Do i am missing anything here.. please clarify me the above statements... I appreciate for your help in advance.
