20 March 2012 Sir,

Please tellme the procedure to Register a Company as a Subsidiary of a Foreign company in India.



20 March 2012 Hi

Please read the circular for the same to establish office and place of business in India issued by RBI on RBI portal.

I am mentioning the basic idea here under:






NON-RESIDENT INDIAN AS SUBSCRIBER TO THE MOA/AOA

The Reserve Bank of India had given general permission under section 29(1)(b) of the former FERA, 1973 to NRI to subscribe to the MOA of an Indian company and to take shares as a subscriber .(Notification No. FERA 143/93-RB, dated 26-4-1993 issued by RBI, Mumbai in this regard is reproduced hereunder:

“The RBI has given general permission to NRI to subscribe to the MOA/AOA of Indian Company for the purpose of Incorporation of the company subject to the condition that:-

(a) the total face value of the shares to be taken by NRI does not exceed Rs. 10,000
(b) the company is being manly formed for undertaking industrial activities
(c) the MOA of such company does not permit the company to take up any agriculture/plantation activities and to deal in real estate business other than developing real estate, and
(d) such company shall file a declaration in the prescribed form with the RBI regarding particular of such shares issued within 900days from the date of incorporation of the company.

DCA Circular dated 16-2-1995 clarifies that there can not be any restriction for incorporation of a company whether all the subscriber to the MOA/AOA/ proposed directors are residing abroad, being either foreign nationals, or NRI subject to the approval of RBI, where necessary.

The RBI may issue such a general permission also under FEMA, 1999 also. The FEMA(Permissible Capital Account Transactions) Regulations, 2000 allow persons resident outside India to invest in an issue of security by body corporate or an entity in India.
