Overview

When an Indian company issues or transfers shares to or from a non-resident, FEMA pricing guidelines require the transaction to be at or above (for issue) / at or below (for transfer to non-resident) a fair value determined by an internationally accepted pricing methodology — typically DCF — certified by a SEBI-registered Merchant Banker or Chartered Accountant.

This valuation is a mandatory input for FC-GPR (share issue), FC-TRS (transfer) and other FEMA filings with the RBI.

CorpRaasta arranges the required valuation certificate through the appropriate registered professional and aligns it with your FDI/ODI reporting so your foreign investment stays fully compliant.

What is FEMA Valuation (FDI/ODI)?

FEMA valuation is a fair-value certification (usually by DCF) required under FEMA pricing guidelines when shares are issued to or transferred between residents and non-residents.

Why it matters

Incorrect pricing on a cross-border share transaction is a FEMA contravention that can attract penalties and compounding. A proper valuation certificate keeps your FC-GPR/FC-TRS filings clean and defensible.
