FEMA Representations & Appeals FAQs
Common questions about income tax, compliance, and litigation support in India.
What is a FEMA violation and how is it handled?
Any non-compliance with foreign exchange rules—such as late reporting or wrong account usage—can be a FEMA violation. These can be settled via compounding or legal representation.
What is a compounding application under FEMA?
It’s a legal process that allows you to acknowledge a violation and pay a penalty to avoid prosecution. We prepare and submit these on your behalf.
What happens if I ignore an ED or RBI notice?
Non-response can escalate to penalties, asset freezes, or further inquiry. Our team ensures timely and accurate replies with supporting documentation.
Can past violations be regularized?
Yes. We specialize in reviewing your transaction trail, identifying errors, and submitting rectification or compounding applications to close the matter.
