14 August 2012 Dear Sir,

There is issue of shares to existing shareholder who is a 100% share holder being a foreign holding company.

We filled the FC GPR form. but since n the declaration part there is no option for where we can declare as normal issue of shares,where should write these shares as.
Should we put in private placement/ preferential allotment.

Thanks

14 August 2012 Hi

In case of company, how it is possible to issue 100% shares of existing company.

For new company in which 100% shareholding if owned by foreign company then it will not be treated as further issue and not required to file FC-GPR in that case.

The equity instruments should be issued within 180 days from the date of receipt of inward remittance or by debit to the NER/FCNR (B) account of the non-resident investor. In case the equity instruments are not issued within 180 days from the date of receipt of the inward remittance or the date of debit to the NER/FCNR (B) account, the amount of consideration so received should be refunded immediately to the non-resident investor by onward remittance through normal banking channels or by credit to the NER/FCNR(B) account, as the case may be. Non-compliance with the above provision would be reckoned as a contravention under FEMA and could attract penal provisions. In exceptional cases, refund of the amount of consideration outstanding beyond a period of 180 days from the date of receipt may be considered by the Reserve Bank, on the merits of the case.

16 August 2012 Dear Sir,

Thank you very much for detailed reply, but still i think i must have put the question wrong as the query is not resolved.

An indian company which is 100% subsidiary of Foreign company.

During intially transfer of shares we took approval of RBI and filled FIPB and approval of transfer of shares was granted by which we became 100% subsidiary of Foreign company.

Now indian company wants additional funds which will be by raising capital by issue of shares.

For this raising of capital too, we have to file FCGPR form and if so then what type of issue we should write in Table 4 of PART A ..will it be right issue or private palcement.
