Welcome to the first edition of Defence Dispatch, Ikigai Law's new monthly newsletter on India's defence sector. It will track in one place, the developments that are reshaping defence policy, defence manufacturing, technology, and international partnerships. It is intended as a steady, month-on-month record of how India's defence posture and defence ecosystem are evolving. This January edition looks at how shifting global security assumptions and rising defence spending are translating into concrete choices, through proposed changes to India's defence FDI framework, the signing of the EU-India Security and Defence Partnership, and a set of deals, investments, and technology moves that signal where the sector is heading.

Acquisition By An FOCC Of An Indian Company: Pricing Conditions For Resident And Non-resident Shareholders

A FOCC refers to an Indian entity that has received foreign investment and is ultimately owned or controlled by persons resident outside India. Although incorporated in India under the Companies Act, such entities are treated differently from domestically owned and controlled Indian companies for the purposes of foreign investment regulation and downstream investment structuring. Consequently, an FOCC, despite being an Indian incorporated entity, is subject to regulatory conditions applicable to foreign investment while undertaking investments into other Indian entities.
