Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) by Conversion of existing Company into LLP.

The Consolidated FDI Policy permits an Indian Company having FDI to be converted into the LLP with prior approval of FIPB/Government but subject to various conditions.

One of the conditions, prior to introduction of FDI Policy dated 5th April, 2013 was that Foreign Capital participation in LLPs will be allowed only by way of cash consideration, received by inward remittance, through normal banking channels or by debit to NRE/FCNR account of the person concerned, maintained with an authorized dealer/authorized bank.

In case of Conversion of an Indian Company into LLP, the said condition has been dispensed with by introducing new Consolidated FDI Policy dated 5th April, 2013.
