Foreign Venture Capital Investor investment rules permit specified purchases in unlisted Indian issuers without prior RBI approval, subject to remittance and reporting.

Registered Foreign Venture Capital Investors may invest in unlisted Indian companies, startups, VCFs or Cat I AIFs by acquiring equity, equity linked or debt instruments or units, purchasing from issuers, third parties or on recognised exchanges, with consideration paid from inward remittance or proceeds/income from prior investments; such investments do not require prior RBI approval but are subject to Reserve Bank terms, exclusive designated accounts for Schedule transactions, permitted transfers at mutually agreed prices, liquidation proceeds rights, and reporting as prescribed by Reserve Bank or SEBI.
