Can I borrow money from NRI or Indian Settled in US (Citizen) for expanding my proprietary business.
What is the procedure?
Do we have to sign any bond?
Is there any minimum limit on interest rate to be paid?
Taxation issues? Gift tax?
Do I have to notify RBI or any other body ( Amount Rs 6 or 12 lakh)
Please help.

a. the minimum maturity period of the loan is one year;
b. the loan is free of interest; and
c. the amount of loan is received by inward remittance in free foreign exchange through normal banking channels or by debit to the NRE/FCNR account of the non-resident lender.
