    Common Questions

    India Incorporation FAQs

    Can a US company own 100% of an Indian subsidiary?

    Yes. Most sectors allow 100% foreign direct investment into an Indian Private Limited Company under the RBI automatic route, without prior government approval.

    Do I need to visit India to incorporate?

    No. The entire incorporation process — DSC, DIN, SPICe+ filing, and Certificate of Incorporation — can be completed remotely with notarised and apostilled documents.

    What is FC-GPR and do I need it?

    FC-GPR is the RBI filing required within 30 days of receiving foreign investment into an Indian company, reporting the share allotment to foreign shareholders.

    How is a US parent company taxed on Indian subsidiary profits?

    Dividends repatriated to the US parent are subject to Indian dividend distribution provisions and may qualify for reduced withholding under the US-India DTAA, typically 15–25% depending on structure.

    What is the ongoing compliance for an Indian subsidiary?

    Annual ROC filings (AOC-4, MGT-7), income tax returns, GST returns (if registered), statutory audit, and transfer pricing documentation for related-party transactions with the US parent.
