Is it permitted, by which route, on what cap,
on which form — and by when?
FEMA questions are transactional, not case-hunting. TaxCorp FEMA AI answers the way an exchange-control practitioner works — the Act, then the Regulation, then the RBI Master Direction or circular the AD bank will actually apply, then the form and the deadline. And when something has gone wrong, it measures what RBI has actually charged in comparable compounding orders.
Compounding exposure, measured — not guessed.
On the Contravention and Compounding workflows the assistant finds the RBI compounding orders most like your facts and reports the amounts actually imposed — lowest, median, highest — across 6,500+ orders from June 2016 to 2026, covering the full-order era and the current summary era separately. Give it the allotment date, the remittance date and the sum involved, and it computes the delay and the Late Submission Fee basis instead of speaking in generalities.
Measure an exposure- Comparable orders, cited — the provision contravened, the office, the date and the amount, for each order relied on.
- Two eras, reported separately — pre-2020 fully-reasoned orders and the current summary series, so the working estimate is recent, not stale.
- Delay & LSF computed — from the dates and amounts you supply.
- Kept apart from precedent — compounding orders are s.15 settlements; they inform the estimate and never masquerade as case law.
Twelve workflows, one desk
Every output an exchange-control practice produces — research, permissibility, the compliance calendar, structuring, drafting to the AD bank or RBI, and client-ready advisories.
Research
A straight question, answered law-first with the operative instrument.
Permissible?
Is the transaction allowed — automatic route, approval route, or not at all — and on what conditions.
Compliance
Every form, document and due date in sequence — FC-GPR, FC-TRS, FLA, ODI, ECB returns.
Structure
Compare India-entry or outbound structures on route, caps, conditions and reporting load.
Remittance
LRS and current-account remittances — limits, purposes, TCS interplay, documentation.
Opinion
A formal, provision-cited opinion for the file.
Contravention
What went wrong, under which provision, and what it is likely to cost — with measured exposure.
Compounding
Draft the compounding application to RBI with the facts, computation and annexures.
AD / RBI Letter
Write to the AD bank or RBI — clarifications, condonation, approvals.
Advisory
Explain the position to a client in plain words, caveats included.
Review Draft
16 checks on your own draft — including a provision-accuracy check aimed at superseded and renumbered regulations, the commonest FEMA drafting error.
Analyze
Understand a letter, notice or order you received — issue by issue.
Adjudication & appeals
From show-cause notice to writ — forum-aware drafting.
Six litigation formats, each grounded in the same law-first retrieval and your uploaded notice or order.
SCN Reply
Issue-wise reply to the show-cause notice.
Hearing Brief
Speaking notes for the personal hearing.
Appeal
Memorandum of appeal, grounds and prayer.
Submissions
Written submissions for the forum.
Pre-deposit
Application on the penalty deposit.
Writ
Writ petition where the statutory route fails.
Answers in the order the law works
Below every answer, separate source panels in precedence order — so you can verify each layer independently.
Statutory provisions
FEMA 1999, the Rules and the numbered Regulations — the verbatim text the answer rests on. A section number is its own citation.
RBI Master Directions & A.P. (DIR) circulars
What the AD bank will actually apply at the counter.
Practice Manual
Procedure, FAQs and formats across 25 FEMA subjects — FDI, ODI, ECB, LRS, exports, imports, accounts, reporting, compounding and more.
Judicial decisions
Numbered [1], [2]… — click a marker in the answer to jump straight to the case card. Full judgment text available on eligible decisions.
RBI compounding orders — quarantined
Settlements under s.15, numbered as a continuation and clearly separated: they measure exposure, they are never cited as precedent.
Built for the notice on your desk
Paste or upload the notice
A long notice or fact pattern is split into issues automatically, each researched on its own and answered issue-wise.
Supporting documents
Attach FIRCs, valuation reports, board resolutions, acknowledgements — each is summarised, and you choose whether the AI sees the summary or the whole document.
Dates & amounts drive the answer
Allotment date, remittance date, filing date, sum involved — the assistant computes the delay and the LSF basis, not generalities.
25 FEMA topics
An optional topic sharpens retrieval without walling anything off — an ODI question still sees s.6(3) and the AD-bank circulars. Each topic offers sample questions.
Refine in context
Follow-ups keep the same provisions and circulars in context; one-click refinements cover route, filings, exposure and tone.
Save & export
Save any answer to your Library — shareable with your firm — or export to Word / PDF on your letterhead.
How it works
Pick the workflow
Research, Permissible?, Compliance, Contravention… or an appeal format.
Give it the facts
Question, notice or order — plus dates, amounts and supporting documents.
Law-first retrieval
Act → Regulations → Master Directions & circulars → practice material → decisions.
Measured exposure
On contravention work, comparable RBI orders quantify the likely amount.
Verify & export
Source panels layer by layer; refine, save to Library, export Word/PDF.
Why TaxCorp FEMA AI
Practice-led, not case-led
Built around the questions AD banks and RBI actually ask — route, cap, form, deadline — with case law in support, not in charge.
Real compounding data
The exposure figures come from RBI's own published orders — 6,500+ of them, June 2016 through 2026 — not from anecdote.
The current instrument
FEMA regulations are re-notified and renumbered often; the draft-review pass checks your citations against the operative instrument.
Every marker verifiable
Each numbered citation resolves to a real, displayed source card — nothing free-floating.
Forum-aware litigation drafting
SCN reply to writ, with the format and limitation paragraph tracking the forum you pick.
Part of one platform
Sits beside Income Tax, GST and INTL/TP AI — one Library, one firm workspace, one subscription.
Initial-level analysis for professional review — verify the operative instrument and your AD bank's own requirements before filing. Compounding amounts are fixed at RBI's discretion; measured figures are indicative, and compounding orders are settlements, not precedent.
