What FC-GPR filing requires
Within 30 Days of Allotment
FC-GPR must be filed within 30 days of allotting shares to a foreign investor — no grace period.
Valid EMF and SMF
Entity Master Form must exist on FIRMS and SMF must be updated before FC-GPR can be filed.
Registered Valuer Report
Share allotment price must not be below the FEMA floor price — valuation report required.
AD Bank Involvement
The company's AD Category I Bank must verify the inward remittance and certify the FC-GPR.
Inward Remittance Proof
Bank certificate confirming receipt of FDI consideration from the foreign investor required.
Sectoral Compliance
FDI must be in a sector permissible under the automatic route — prohibited sectors not eligible.
Every share allotment to a foreign investor triggers an FC-GPR obligation — no matter how small the amount. A Rs. 1 lakh FDI allotment that is not reported is still a FEMA violation carrying penalties of up to 3x the amount.

Frequently asked questions
Form FC-GPR (Foreign Currency — Gross Provisional Return) is filed with the Reserve Bank of India to report the allotment of shares to a foreign investor. It must be filed within 30 days of the date of allotment on the RBI FIRMS portal.
Yes. FC-GPR must be filed for every share allotment to a foreign investor — whether equity shares, preference shares or compulsorily convertible debentures. There is no minimum threshold below which FC-GPR is not required.
Shares allotted to a foreign investor must not be issued at a price below the fair market value determined by an IBBI-registered valuer using the DCF or NAV method. Allotment below this floor price violates FEMA pricing guidelines.
Late filing of FC-GPR is a FEMA violation. The company must apply for compounding with the RBI — pay a penalty fee to regularise the violation. The penalty is calculated based on the amount of FDI and the period of delay.
An ARN (Acknowledgement Reference Number) is generated by the FIRMS portal when FC-GPR is successfully submitted. It confirms receipt of the filing by the RBI and is the primary evidence of compliance — it should be archived with the company's FEMA records.
