Delayed reporting of Form FC-GPR under FEMA was treated as non-establishment of contravention where the record showed timely submission to the authorised dealer with acknowledgment, and the later delay in transmission to RBI was attributable to the bank's lapse. As no legal requirement for direct filing with RBI was identified, the burden to prove breach was not discharged against the appellant.
