chapter 1: Intent and Objective
1.1 Intent and Objective
1.1.1 It is the Intent and Objective of the Government to Promote Foreign Direct Investment
through a Policy Framework Which is Transparent, Predictable, Simple and Clear and Reduces
regulatory Burden. the System of Periodic Consolidation and Updation is Introduced as An
investor Friendly Measure.
1.1.2 investment is Usually Understood as Financial Contribution to the Capital of An Enterprise
or Purchase of Shares in the Enterprise. foreign Investment is Investment in An Enterprise By A
non-resident Irrespective of Whether this Involves New Capital or Re-investment of Earnings.
foreign Investment is of Two Kinds (i) Foreign Direct Investment (fdi) and (ii) Foreign
portfolio Investment.
1.1.3 International Monetary Fund (imf) and Organization for Economic Cooperation And
development(oecd) Define Fdi Similarly as a Category of Cross Border Investment Made By A
resident in One Economy (the Direct Investor) with the Objective of Establishing a lasting Interest
in An Enterprise (the Direct Investment Enterprise) that is Resident in An Economy other Than that Of
the Direct Investor. the Motivation of the Direct Investor is a Strategic Long Term Relationship
with the Direct Investment Enterprise to Ensure the Significant Degree of Influence By the Direct
investor in the Management of the Direct Investment Enterprise. Direct Investment Allows The
direct Investor to Gain Access to the Direct Investment Enterprise Which It Might Otherwise Be
unable to Do. the Objectives of Direct Investment are Different from Those of Portfolio Investment
whereby Investors Do Not Generally Expect to Influence the Management of the Enterprise. in The
indian Context, Fdi is Defined in Para 2.1.12 of this Circular.

activities Which Significantly Contribute to Industrialization and Socio-economic Development.

indian Entities. Any Non-resident Investment in An Indian Company is Direct Foreign Investment.
investment By Resident Indian Entities Could Again Comprise of Both Resident and Non-resident
investment. Thus, such An Indian Company Would have Indirect Foreign Investment if the Indian
investing Company Has Foreign Investment in It. the Indirect Investment Can also Be a Cascading
investment I.e. Through Multi-layered Structure.
4.1.2 for the Purpose of Computation of Indirect Foreign Investment, Foreign Investment In
indian Company Shall Include all Types of Foreign Investments I.e. Fdi; Investment By

investment,
provided That, as An Exception, the Indirect Foreign Investment in Only the 100% Owned
subsidiaries of Operating-cum-investing/investing Companies, Will Be Limited to The
foreign Investment in the Operating-cum-investing/ Investing Company. this Exception Is
made Since the Downstream Investment of a 100% Owned Subsidiary of the Holding
company is Akin to Investment Made By the Holding Company and the Downstream
investment Should Be a Mirror Image of the Holding Company. this Exception, However,
is Strictly for Those Cases Where the Entire Capital of the Downstream Subsidy is Owned By
the Holding Company.

be Taken as 80%
(iii) Where Company X is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Company Y (i.e. Company Y
owns 100% Shares of Company X), Then Only 75% Would Be Treated as Indirect
foreign Equity and the Balance 25% Would Be Treated as Resident Held Equity. The
