Hi, I finished CS in 2014 and worked for a few months in a private ltd. company before getting married. During the last 10 years, I was not able to practice or get employed anywhere in the company secretary role.
However, now I want to get back into the workforce and restart my career as a company secretary.

I wanted to know, how do I start? How do I get updated about every old and new rule? Also, are there any newsletters or emailers where I can get weekly updates?
Any kind of guidance would be appreciated.

We seek your guidance regarding the opening of a bank account for a Russian foreign company that has established a Branch Office in India.

Currently, the Indian Branch Office holds a bank account with a Russian bank. However, the said bank is unable to comply with and fulfill the statutory and regulatory requirements applicable to the operations of the Branch Office in India, including requirements under Indian laws and regulatory authorities.

The applicable regulatory framework, approvals, and compliances (such as RBI/FEMA requirements) for opening such an account; and

Any alternative solutions or practical approaches to ensure smooth compliance with statutory obligations in India.

We would appreciate your expert guidance and support in resolving this matter at the earliest.

Thanking you in advance.
