Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the implications of FEMA 1999 on a specific foreign exchange transaction. It questions whether Section 3 of FEMA 1999 applies when a Non-Resident Indian (NRI) exchanges US dollars for Indian Rupees with another NRI within India. The consensus suggests there are no FEMA implications, fees, or taxes in such a scenario as the conversion is between two NRIs.

 

There will be no implication of FEMA as the Money is converting from NRI to the NRI, consequently no fees or taxes are levying.so No FEMA implication.
