Transfer By
NRI to NRI-- No aproval /intimation (PROI)Person resident out of India(Not being a NRI/OCB) To PROI/ NRI---No approval / intimation NRI/OCB To PROI--Approval Not required if the total holding by PROI does not exceed the sectorial cap as per FDI guidelines.If exceed Prior approval of FIPB/SIA/CCEA is required.However reporting is must to RBI as per FEMA regulation/Transfer or issue of share by a person Resident Out of India. NRI ( Indian origin) or an OCB ( Oversease corporate body of which at least 60% shareholder are such NRI/Indian origin).understand the defination & defference between NR ,NRI & OCB. However the transaction may fall in the ambit of Tax law since the assets is situated in India.Valuation of share will be done strictly as per earstwhile CCI gudelines with joint reference to Company law for issue of share in discount/premium.
Pls read FDI Master circular jointly with above FEMA Regulation in www.rbi.org -Notification-Master circular & FEMA-Notification respectively |

A NRI purchased some share of indian pvt company engaged in software export, has filed FCTRS for this transfer ( resident to NRI). He paid money from abroad to a resident to buy these shares, so FCTRS was filed
Now this NRI transfered these shares to another Non resident company. Does this transaction requires RBI permission?
Chandramouli, Chennai
The transaction doesn't require any permission provided the sectoral caps in FDI are not breached.
Dear Mr.Anuj gupta
can you give some reference to RBI Mastrer circular for not requiring the permission from nri to non resident entity ( Sectoral cap is complied). ( Does this apply to PIO (Person of indian origin)
With regards
J Sridhar
Mr. Sridhar Jain,
You can refer to Master Circular on Foreign Invesrment in India wherein it is clearly mentioned that no requirement of any permission provided the sectoral caps are adhered .
what would be requirement, if shareholder has a citizenship of Pakistan.
If the shareholder is citizen of Pakistan then the approval of RBI shall be needed.
what abaut in case of transmission to NRI from NRI
please suggest the current regulatory requirements under FEMA/RBI
on transfer of shares of Indian pvt ltd by nri to nri
and the method of calculation as well
