09 December 2025 Yes, Form FC-TRS reporting is applicable even when a resident sells equity shares of an Indian private company to a non-resident on a non-repatriable basis. The RBI requires FC-TRS reporting for all transfers of capital instruments between residents and non-residents, regardless of whether the consideration is repatriable or non-repatriable.

If the non-resident acquires shares on a non-repatriable basis, the investment is treated as domestic investment at par with resident holdings. However, since the transfer involves a resident and a non-resident, FC-TRS filing is still mandatory to record the transaction under FEMA regulations.
