Urgent query

Dear Madam,

As per your question, An Indian Company is interested in acquiring other Indian Companies, which would involve share transfer of Indian Companies, the consideration of which would be paid in Indian Rupees.

Apart from that the shares of spanish companies held by Indian companies, would rest in their names even if the entire shareholding of such companies is undertaken by such company. However if all those five companies are dissolved and its assets tranferred to this Indian company, still it would not involve the question of Foreign exchange as the Purchase consideration would be paid in Indian Rupees.

So where is the question of any foreign exchange transaction involved ?

According to my view as there is no involvement of foreign exchange transaction, the provisons of FEMA doesn't apply here.
 

Yes agree with Mr Gaurav

Dear Gaurav,

Thank you so much for your prompt reply. But my confusion is that the shareholders from whom we will purchase the shares  is a Spanish Company. So the whole consideration will go out of India. So in this case, what will be the RBI compliances and consequences for us as a purchaser.

Regards.
