Whether the Companies should first write to all its shareholders, other than natural persons holding beneficial interest and whose names reflect in register of members, holding more than 10% of shares or exercising significant influence or control over it?
A UK Ltd (Registered in the UK) was holding 25% holding in B Ltd (registered in India).
Now ownership of A UK Ltd was transferred to C UK Ltd.
Therefore there is an indirect change of beneficiary ownership of B Ltd ( registered in India)
Is there any FEMA filing requirement in RBI by B Ltd or A UK Ltd?
