Setting Up a Business in India for Foreign Nationals

Starting a business in India as a foreign national can be a strategic move, given the country's growing economy and market potential. Our service guides you through the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) requirements, enforcing compliance with Indian laws and regulations. We focus on establishing either a Private Limited Company or a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), choosing the best structure based on your business goals and scenarios.

FDI Requirements

Foreign investors can invest in India directly either through the automatic route or the government route based on the sector-specific policies. Understanding the regulatory framework is crucial, as certain sectors may require prior approval from the government.

Private Limited Company vs. LLP

  • Private Limited Company: This structure is popular among foreign investors due to its limited liability and the ability to raise external funding. To incorporate, you need at least two shareholders and two directors.
  • Limited Liability Partnership (LLP): This is an alternative hybrid structure that combines the features of a corporate entity and a partnership. It is suitable for professionals and small businesses.

Key Compliance Regulations

Both structures require compliance with the Companies Act, 2013, and mandate registration with the Registrar of Companies (RoC). The Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) also governs the FDI operations, reinforcing compliance with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines.

Our service ensures that all legalities, from securing a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) to obtaining a Director Identification Number (DIN), are processed seamlessly.
