Global Expansion Strategy (Outbound)

Global Expansion Strategy (Outbound): Taking Your Indian Business to the World

From Local Leader to Global Player. We Architect Your International Expansion for Seamless Compliance and Strategic Success.

For ambitious Indian companies, the next stage of growth lies beyond national borders. However, overseas expansion is governed by stringent regulations under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA), and mistakes can be costly. Our service provides the expert framework to take your business international, ensuring overseas investments are structured correctly, fully compliant, and strategically aligned with your long-term objectives.

What We Deliver:

1. Overseas Direct Investment (ODI) Compliance

We provide end-to-end advisory on FEMA regulations, handling all required filings — including Form ODI and Annual Performance Reports (APRs) — to keep your overseas ventures fully compliant with RBI mandates.

2. Foreign Subsidiary & Branch Setup

We guide you through establishing a legal presence abroad, advising on the optimal entity structure (e.g., Corporation vs. LLC in the US), managing incorporation, and ensuring all local tax and regulatory registrations are handled correctly.

3. Outbound Remittance & Repatriation Strategy

We design tax-efficient structures for funding your foreign ventures and repatriating profits or dividends back to India — fully compliant with FEMA while minimizing global tax exposure.
