Issue addressed: whether funds held, acquired or invested in foreign currency while being non resident attract statutory protection under FEMA when transferred after becoming resident. The text states that protection under the statutory provision applies only to legitimately sourced and explained foreign funds; unexplained or illegitimate funds fall outside protection.
