Does a company that is getting payments in foreign exchange for services rendered to foreign clients (upto an amount of USD 2500 per month) need to take FIRC? If so, is there also any requirement to submit the FIRC with the RBI? If so, what is the procedure to be followed? Consequences of delay etc?
