Frequently asked questions
Can a foreign company own 100% of an Indian subsidiary?
Yes, in sectors where 100% FDI is permitted under the automatic route. For sectors under the approval route or with caps, government approval and sectoral conditions apply.
What ongoing compliance does a foreign subsidiary have?
Beyond standard company compliance, a foreign-owned subsidiary must file the annual FLA Return with RBI and report any further FDI through FC-GPR, in addition to maintaining a resident director.
