🇮🇳 India has formally amended its foreign investment rules for investments linked to countries that share a land border with #India. The key change: the government has now clarified how “beneficial ownership” will be determined by linking it to India’s anti-money laundering law (PMLA). This matters because the earlier border-sharing FDI regime used the term but never clearly defined it, creating uncertainty for global funds and layered investment structures. In simple terms, this makes it easier to assess when an indirect investment may trigger government scrutiny. The new rules also create reporting requirements for certain investments involving indirect land-border ownership that may not need prior approval. But there is still a gap: when the #Cabinet approved these reforms in March, it also referred to (1) an automatic-route carveout for non-controlling investments up to 10% and (2) a 60-day approval timeline for some sectors. Those two points do not appear expressly in the final notification. So for now, the ownership test is clearer - but some operational details still depend on further #RBI guidance. Importantly, the amendment keeps #Pakistan under a separate and stricter government-approval route, with continued sectoral restrictions. #FDI #India #Pakistán

India’s Department of Expenditure has 𝙞𝙣𝙫𝙤𝙠𝙚𝙙 𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙘𝙚 𝙈𝙖𝙟𝙚𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙫𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 for government contracts impacted by the 𝙒𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝘼𝙨𝙞𝙖 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙛𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙩, 𝙤𝙛𝙛𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙖𝙨 𝙖 𝙬𝙖𝙧-𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙧𝙪𝙥𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣. 𝘿𝙀𝘾𝙊𝘿𝙄𝙉𝙂 👇 Under the latest memorandum: • Contractors, suppliers & consultants engaged in public procurement can seek relief for delays linked to the conflict • Government agencies may grant 2–4 month extensions on a case-by-case basis • No penalties or liquidated damages will be imposed for eligible delays • Relief applies across goods, services and works contracts, including defence and infrastructure sectors This is particularly significant for India’s drone, defense-tech and strategic manufacturing ecosystem, where firms remain exposed to disrupted logistics, component imports, shipping routes and supply chains linked to West Asia. The move effectively protects companies from financial penalties arising from geopolitical instability beyond their control and signals growing recognition by New Delhi that global conflicts are now directly affecting industrial and defence production timelines. Notably, firms already in default before February 27, 2026 are reportedly not eligible for relief. #Westasia #India #War #IranWar
