Borrow from a friend abroad through his company account

222 views 1 replies

I am constructing a house and wanted to borrow around 15 lakhs from a friend abroad through is company account. My friend is a foreign national and is willing to send the money from his company account to my personal savings account. I shall be returning back the amount as soon as I get home loan approved or with in a maximum period of 2 years with any interest as per any statutory requirement. I have the following queries,

1. Is this arrangement permissible under the forex?
2. If NO, what are the other options? If YES, do I need to pay any interest when returning the amount?
3. Is there any tax implication on this amount borrowed?
4. Any pre-requisites that needs to put into practice, like an agreement or so?

It will be really helpful if any of you experts reply to these queries.

Thanking you in Advance
