FIRC for FC GPR

Hello Sir or Madam.

For FDI under RBI Circular Notification No. FEMA 20/2000-RB dated May 3, 2000 we have to file FCGPR and FC-GPR in which we have to declare total inflow in INR and has to obtain FIRC from bank.

My question is that, if a foreign company with no existence in India, has inward remittance from other sources, how can it provide original FIRC to RBI through AD category-I?

Thank you.

Regards,
Mark Lee

FC GPR is required to file RBI if foreign exchange received towards capital investment in Equity/ Pref share of Indian WOS/JV.Other than Shares, like Loan/FCCB/Other nature of receipt fall under other Regulation of FEMA  where the Act prescribes separate Forms/procedure of compliance unless it is a Permitted Current/Capital Account transaction.But neverthless the ere is always a FIRC for each receipt of money in Foreign Exchange which contain the NATURE / END USE of that money .Accordingly you need to analyse wheather that specific nature of receipt required intimation/aproval of RBI/FIPB or not.Sometimes it is required to take PRIOR APPROVAL of RBI for bringing money to India.All documents can be routed through with AD banker to RBI except some few where you may submit directly to RBI.
