Q: Sweet Equity In Australian Startup
Hello,I am a freelancer providing CTO services to an Australian IT product company, which is offering me 5% sweet equity for my work.My understanding:Since the equity is for services and not purchased with money, prior RBI/FEMA approval may not be needed.The company is a low-valuation startup but plans fundraising soon.I plan to sign the shareholder agreement shortly.I will declare this annually under ITR Schedule FA as a foreign asset.Please advise:Is my FEMA/RBI understanding correct?Any other legal, tax, or compliance points I should consider?Regards,
Advocate Rohan Rai answered
1. FEMA/RBI Approval: • Since the 5% equity is being allotted to you against services (and not purchased for cash remittance from India), it generally does not trigger the usual overseas direct investment (ODI) compliances under FEMA. • In such cases, prior RBI approval is typically not required, provided the allotment is in accordance with the local laws of the host country (Australia in this case).
