FEMA Lawyers in Mumbai

What is FEMA Law?
The Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (FEMA) is a critical legal framework in India that governs foreign exchange transactions, cross-border investments, external borrowings, and remittances. It is enforced by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) to ensure that India’s foreign exchange ecosystem remains legally compliant, transparent, and stable.
Key areas regulated under FEMA include:

• • Inbound and Outbound Foreign Investments (FDI & ODI)
• • Foreign Remittances & Transfers (LRS, ECBs, NRO/NRE Accounts)
• • Acquisition or Transfer of Immovable Property by NRIs/Foreigners
• • RBI Approval Routes for FDI/ODI Transactions
• • Compliance for Startups & Companies Receiving Foreign Capital
• • Import-Export Payment Regulations & FEMA Audits
• • Adjudication of FEMA Violations by Enforcement Directorate

FEMA is a civil regulatory statute, but non-compliance can lead to penalties, compounding proceedings, or attachment of assets.
