What Ahmedabad Businesses Usually Ask Us
What is different about setting up in a GIDC estate?
Plots in GIDC industrial estates are allotted on lease by the Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation, usually in the name of the entity that will run the unit. The company can be incorporated before the allotment, or an existing allotment can be transferred to a new company later with GIDC's consent, which adds a step, so the order matters.
Do Ahmedabad groups need RBI approval to set up a subsidiary abroad?
Most overseas direct investment is under the automatic route: it is reported to the authorised dealer bank in Form FC within the financial commitment limits, without prior RBI approval. Some sectors and investors are restricted, and a structure in which the overseas entity invests back into India needs care under the round-tripping rules.
