Resource Centre on Overseas Investments
Any overseas investment, whether in the form of equity or debt, by Indian entities is subject to a well-defined regulatory framework laid down by the Central Government and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). To streamline and govern such cross-border transactions, the Central Government introduced the Foreign Exchange Management (Overseas Investment) Rules, 2022, while the RBI issued the Master Direction – Overseas Investment and the Foreign Exchange Management (Overseas Investment) Regulations, 2022. These rules and directions provide clarity on permissible investments, compliance procedures, reporting requirements, and related approvals. To gain a deeper understanding of the nuances and practical implications of these regulations, we encourage you to explore our detailed resources below.
