How we approach it
Frequently asked questions
Can a foreign company own 100% of an Indian subsidiary?
In most sectors, yes, under the automatic route — we confirm the sector position.
Is an Indian resident director required?
Yes — at least one director must be resident in India.
How is the investment reported?
Via FC-GPR to the RBI within 30 days of share allotment.
How is the resident-director requirement satisfied for a wholly foreign-owned subsidiary?
At least one director must have stayed in India for a specified minimum number of days in the previous calendar year — we can advise on appointing a qualifying resident director if needed.
Can the subsidiary be 100% owned by the foreign parent from day one?
Yes in most sectors under the automatic route, with the investment reported via FC-GPR after allotment.
What's the timeline from incorporation to first compliance deadline?
The first auditor must be appointed within 30 days of incorporation, and FC-GPR is due within 30 days of share allotment — both fall early, so we set up the compliance calendar from day one.
