FC-TRS filing is a mandatory FEMA compliance when shares of an Indian company are transferred between a resident and a non-resident. It must be reported to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) through the FIRMS portal.
Most issues arise in FC-TRS filings due to valuation errors, incorrect documentation, or delays beyond prescribed timelines. These mistakes often result in penalties or compounding proceedings.
