Exploring FEMA – Foreign Exchange Regulations of India Feb 17, 2014
India is a lucrative opportunity for both short term and long term investors. Three big reasons to invest in India:
• The GDP of India has grown from 63.5 billion in 1970 to 1.84 trillion in 2012. This is almost 2600% increase. GDP is expected to grow at 8% YOY.
• India is the third largest economy in the world on purchasing power parity (PPP)
• India offers young population. More than 50% of its population below the age of 25.
Having said that, a certain degree of astuteness is required to make money from investments in India.
Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) is the gate way legislation of India for Inbound and Outbound Investments. The magnitude and complexity of the FEMA needs to be understood well before playing in Indian financial markets.
The new consolidated FDI Policy proposed to be issued by the Government of India in April, 2014 (2014 FDI Policy) is expected to have major changes to attract more FDI equity inflows into India.
This year marks the twenty third anniversary of the dramatic opening up of the Indian economy. In the area of foreign exchange the country has certainly moved away from an older paradigm of managing scarcity, to a more liberal and flexible regime and at the same time with high punitive action for contraventions.
Indian overseas investment policies have been progressively liberalized and simplified to meet the changing needs of a growing economy. The policy, which evolved as one of the strategies for export promotion and for strengthening economic linkages with other countries, has expanded significantly in scope and size, especially after the introduction of Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999.
This seminar is focused to help the participants understand the following practical issues which are very important for every company, professional and banker dealing with India:
(a) FDI Policy of India
(b) External Commercial Borrowings
(c) Outbound Investment Policy
This program is designed incorporating all the changes in the law upto 2nd April, 2014.
