From hundreds of engagements, here are the patterns that cause founders and businesses to come back to us in distress. Avoid these and you've already won 70% of the matter.
DIFFERENT definitions! FEMA Sec 2(w) — based on intention to stay; Income Tax S.6 — based on day-count. Can be FEMA-resident but IT-NRI or vice versa. Wrong classification = wrong account type + wrong tax treatment.
NRO — income earned IN INDIA (rent, interest, dividends). NRE — earnings ABROAD repatriated to India. FCNR — fixed deposits in foreign currency. Mixing transactions = compliance breach + tax issues.
Any remittance abroad of taxable income REQUIRES Form 15CA (and 15CB for >₹5L). AD Bank cannot remit without these. Skipping = remittance blocked + potential FEMA breach.
$250,000 per year per INDIVIDUAL (Resident only — NRIs not subject to LRS for outbound). Aggregated across all remittances in FY. Exceeding without RBI prior approval = FEMA violation, penalty up to 3x amount + criminal liability.
For Indian residents/entities with active overseas investments — APR mandatory annually via AD Bank. Missing = continuing default under FEMA + ED enforcement risk.
ALL foreign assets (bank accounts, investments, property, equity) MUST be disclosed in ITR Schedule FA — regardless of value. Missing = Black Money Act ₹10L/asset penalty + prosecution up to 7 years.
NRIs CAN purchase residential/commercial property (except agricultural land/farmhouse/plantation property). Funds must come from NRE/NRO/FCNR or inward remittance. Form FC-IL not needed for individual residential. Loan can be ≤80% LTV from Indian banks.
NRI receiving inherited Indian property/assets needs FEMA compliance (acquisition reporting). Repatriation has separate rules — up to USD 1M/yr from NRO account permitted (after CA certification).
Past violations can be VOLUNTARILY DISCLOSED via FEMA compounding application (S.46). Penalty significantly lower than prosecution. Doing nothing = ED audit risk + 3x penalty + criminal proceedings.
Each transaction type has specific RBI Master Direction. Filing without checking latest version causes rejection. Updates happen frequently (e.g., ODI rules revised Aug 2022).
These are the signals — observed across the profession — that your money and matter are about to be handled poorly. We list them so you can vet anyone, including us.
