In Companies Act you will find reference for stock options in Explanation II of section 79A. SEBI guidelines are not applicable to ESOP by unlisted companies. As far as RBI guidelines is concerned, Company can not allot options/shares more than 5% of its total paid up capital to non resident employees under ESOP.
Procedures will be as fallow;

There is a foreign national employee who has exercised his options. The exercise price is different for each and every employee. So, is there any restriction now that the future exercise price for any Indian employees should not be more than this price?
If yes please send me the reference number?
Thank You

How come exercise price can be different, and if it is so, definately he would be falling under some different grants. Even if so, it doesnot affect valuation of other options as the same will be decided previously at the time of grant, which was already decided some where in past.
At the time of exercise, price will be the same for what resolution been passes and consequently issued grant letter.
