through structured documentation review, filing preparation, compliance support and coordination with the relevant stakeholders.

Whether you are a startup raising funds from an overseas investor, an Indian subsidiary receiving foreign equity investment,

or an established company issuing shares to a non-resident investor, we provide practical support throughout the FDI filing process.

What Are FDI FILING Services?

FDI filing services help Indian businesses manage regulatory reporting associated with foreign equity investment. When a non-resident investor invests in an Indian company, the transaction may involve documentation, valuation, KYC, inward remittance records, share allotment information and applicable FEMA/RBI reporting.

Our role is to help you organize the required information, review the transaction details, prepare applicable documentation and support the filing process.

The objective is to make the compliance process more structured and reduce avoidable documentation or reporting issues.

Our FDI compliance support can be useful for startups, private limited companies, Indian subsidiaries of overseas companies and other businesses receiving foreign investment.
