23 January 2016 Hi Friends,

I have the following query any body can give me the solution.

One of my NRI client wants to start the business in India on repatriation basis as a partner in Partnership firm, for that he may need to get the RBI prior approval to start the business here, if so what is the procedure to get the RBI approval and what are the other compliance's to be fulfilled by him before he starts the business

To give you specific answer you have to provide quantum of investment, nature of business, residence of NRI, etc
