The meaning of Non-Repatriable basis means the sale or the result of the proceeds of the sale, cannot be transferred outside India. This means that if an investment or sale or proceeds is of Non-Repatriable Basis, then they cannot even be converted to foreign currency and transferred to a foreign country where the NRI has a residence. Non- Repatriation, therefore, means an investment which cannot be transferred back to the country where the initial investment was made from.
The Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) considers that if an investment is more than 10% from overseas, then such an investment is considered as a foreign investment (and below 10% it will be considered as FPI). Foreign investments are governed by the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA). Non-Resident Indian who lives overseas invests certain income which they have acquired through an instrument in India. These investments are classified as Non-Repatriable Investments. Therefore when the investment is a Non-Repatriable Investment such an investment is considered as a domestic investment since the capital or the proceeds of the sale cannot be transferred back to the country where the investment is made from.
The primary regulatory authority for these forms of investments is the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Apart from the RBI, the laws that govern investments which are made in a non-repatriable basis are as follows:
Foreign Exchange Management Act of 1999
The Reserve Bank of India has made specific requirements for Investments made by an NRI through Non-Repatriable Basis:
