FPIs, FVCIs and Foreign Funds on the Cap Table
A foreign fund can invest in an Indian company as an FPI, as a foreign direct investor, as an FVCI, or indirectly through an Indian AIF. The route it uses decides the price rules, the filings the company makes, the lock-in and exit terms, and how the fund is taxed. Establish the route before the term sheet is signed.
