Whether following remittances by persons other than individuals require prior approval of the Reserve Bank of India under Liberalized Remittance Scheme : Navya Ltd., an Indian company wants to remit USD 100,000 to a company outside India towards reimbursement of pre-incorporation expenses for investment of USD 2,000,000 in its company which is fully brought into India.

Answer & Explanation:

Remittances exceeding five per cent of investment brought into India or USD 100,000 whichever is higher, by an entity in India by way of reimbursement of pre-incorporation expenses requires prior permission of Reserve Bank of India. In this case, 5% of investment brought into India is USD 100,000 which is within the limit. So, no prior approval of Reserve Bank of India is required.
