Answers

Common questions

Subsidiary or branch: which is better for India?

Most foreign companies use a private limited subsidiary: it is simpler for hiring, contracts and tax. Branches and liaison offices need RBI approval routes and suit narrower activities.

What is FC-GPR?

The FEMA report filed with the RBI through the FIRMS portal after shares are issued to a foreign investor, within the prescribed time.

What is the FLA return?

An annual return on foreign liabilities and assets that Indian companies with foreign investment file with the RBI, usually by 15 July.

Does transfer pricing apply to my India subsidiary?

Yes, if it transacts with the parent or other group companies. Prices must be at arm's length and documented, with Form 3CEB filed each year.

Can you report to our head office in our format?

Yes. We prepare a monthly pack mapped to your chart of accounts and reporting calendar.
