FEMA & RBI Compliance

FEMA & RBI Compliance

Cross-border transactions and foreign investments require meticulous compliance with the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) and the guidelines prescribed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). At CHOWDARY & RAO, we assist companies, investors, and individuals in navigating the regulatory framework governing inbound and outbound investments, external commercial borrowings, and foreign exchange transactions. Our FEMA & RBI Compliance services ensure that clients operate within the legal boundaries while achieving their business and financial objectives.

Our services include advisory on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), Overseas Direct Investment (ODI), External Commercial Borrowings (ECB), and remittance-related matters. We support clients in preparing and filing statutory returns such as Form FC-GPR, FC-TRS, ODI Forms, Annual Return on Foreign Liabilities and Assets (FLA), and other periodic submissions required under RBI’s Master Directions. We also assist in setting up Joint Ventures and Wholly Owned Subsidiaries abroad and ensure that repatriation, valuation, and reporting norms are properly complied with.

With changing regulatory norms and increasing scrutiny from enforcement and banking agencies, our team provides proactive updates and structured compliance support, reducing the risk of penalties and transaction delays. Our advisory is based on a deep understanding of FEMA provisions, RBI notifications, and sector-specific limits, enabling clients to structure cross-border dealings legally and efficiently. Every engagement is handled with confidentiality, technical depth, and full adherence to ICAI’s ethical standards, ensuring integrity, transparency, and trust in all international dealings.
