Foreign investment framework under FEMA sets entry routes, sectoral caps, pricing rules, and transfer conditions for non-resident investors. Foreign investment in India is regulated under FEMA and the Non-Debt Instruments framework, with the Reserve Bank administering the rules through directions to authorised dealers and related reporting and payment requirements. The direction consolidates the legal meaning of foreign investment, foreign direct investment, foreign portfolio investment, investment vehicles, LLP investment, downstream investment, non-repatriation holdings, pricing, valuation, and transfer mechanics, while making the underlying NDI Rules and other FEMA notifications prevail in case of inconsistency. It also sets out prohibited sectors, Government-route restrictions for specified ownership patterns, and the permitted routes, instruments and transfer mechanisms for non-resident investors.
