Indian Direct Investment in Joint Ventures (JV)/ Wholly Owned
Subsidiaries (WOS) Outside India
A.P.
(DIR Series) Circular No. 51 dated 24th June 2002
Attention
of authorised dealers is invited to Foreign Exchange Management (Transfer or
Issue of any Foreign Security) Regulations, 2000 notified by the Reserve Bank
vide Notification No.FEMA.19/ RB-2000 dated May 3, 2000, as amended from time to
time.
2.
In terms of A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No.3 dated June 22, 2000 as
amended by A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No.13 dated September 14, 2000, in case of
investments made under the automatic route for overseas direct investment,
authorised dealers are required to forward to the Reserve Bank, form ODA
alongwith the prescribed documents and a report on remittance in form ODR.
Remittances made under an approval of the Reserve Bank are only required to be
reported in form ODR.
3.
With a view to further streamlining the procedure for reporting overseas
direct investments in JV/WOS, it has been decided to dispense with the
requirement of forwarding of form ODA alongwith the prescribed documents to
Reserve Bank for investments made under the automatic route by Indian parties.
4.
The report on remittances required to be submitted by authorised dealers
has also been revised. All remittances/guarantees issued/ capitalisation of
exports etc., irrespective of whether under the automatic route or under Reserve
Bank approval, are henceforth required to be reported in the revised form ODR
(format enclosed), to the Chief General Manager, Reserve Bank of India, Exchange
Control Department, Overseas Investment Division, Amar Building, 3rd
Floor, Mumbai-400001. There will be no change in the procedures relating to the
receipt/scrutiny of the form ODA submitted by the Indian parties to the
authorised dealer. Accordingly A.P.
(DIR Series) Circular No. 3, ibid, stands modified to that extent.
5.
Necessary amendments to the Foreign Exchange Management (Transfer or
Issue of any Foreign Security) Regulations 2000 are being notified separately.
6.
Authorised Dealers may bring the contents of this circular to the notice
of their constituents concerned.
7.
The directions contained in this circular have been issued under Section
10(4) and Section 11(1) of the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (42 of
1999).
