31 October 2009 The Bank has three options.

(1) To transfer the shares in the Bank's name.

(2) To acquire the shares and move for disollution of the company and proceeds will be taken over by the Bank.

(3) RBI role is supervisory role and when you submit the documents they will verify the authenticity of the doucments.

(4) You have to check whether the allotment is under automatic route or FIPB route and if FIPB route take a copy of approval and read the conditions for repatriation, the same will be applicable to foreign Bankers also.
