No limits for royalty/lumpsum payment in FEMA under Current Account Transaction as per PN 8 – DIPP allowed it under Automatic route (ie) without the approval of RBI

Press Note 8 of 2009 as notified by 0/0 IPP F. No. 5(6)/2008-FC dated 16.12.2009

The existing policy of Government of India on the payment of royalties under Foreign Technology Collaboration provides for automatic approval for foreign technology transfers involving payment of lumpsum fee of US$ 2 million and payment of royalty of 5% on domestic sales and 8% on exports. In addition, where there is no technology transfer involved, royalty up to 2% for exports and 1% for domestic sales is allowed under automatic route on use of trademarks and brand names of the foreign collaborator. Separate norms are available for the hotel sector vide Press Note 18 (1991 Series) and Press Note 1 (1995 Series). Technology transfers involving payments above these limits required prior permission of the Government of India (Project Approval Board, Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion).

The Government of India has reviewed the extant policy and it has been decided to permit, with immediate effect, payments for royalty, lumpsum fee for transfer of technology and payments for use of trademark/brand name on the automatic route i.e. without any approval of the Government of India. All such payments will be subject to Foreign Exchange Management (Current Account Transactions) Rules, 2000 as amended from time to time.

Meaning, Payment of Royalty and Lumpsum fees is fully liberalised now without any ceiling limits and will fall under Automatic Route.

  4. I told them to type in "Mac - Book Air broken hinge" on Google for proof of the widespread issue, but they just
    shrugged it off. The latest offering in the Air series
    is the 11 and 13 inch laptops. It was a great investment and I found that it's better to not sweat the small stuff.

  5. So it really is greater to decide a 5-8 mega pixel cam and pay out
    far more consideration to the Nikon digital camera batteries in its
    place. A great side pan requires that the camera
    travel together with the subject in both X
    and Y-axis. In order to remove the lens, depress the lens release button
    and rotate the lens clockwise.
