Coverage

Jurisdictions we serve

India mainland, GIFT SEZ IFSC and overseas — three separate regulatory worlds, run by one team so that nothing falls between them.

How we are structured. RRBP Advisors is the brand under which our group practises. Work for the India mainland market — company and LLP law, direct tax, GST, FEMA, audit and secretarial practice — is delivered by our Indian practice entities. Work inside the International Financial Services Centre is delivered by RRBP Global Advisors IFSC LLP, a unit in GIFT SEZ registered with the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA) as an Ancillary Services provider under IFSCA registration no. IFSCA/TAS/2025-26/0045. You deal with one team; the engagement is contracted through the right entity for the jurisdiction, so the regulatory position is clean on both sides.

India Mainland

Delivered by our Indian practice entities — the domestic regulatory perimeter.

GIFT SEZ IFSC

Delivered by RRBP Global Advisors IFSC LLP, a unit in GIFT SEZ.

Jurisdiction 02

GIFT SEZ IFSC

India’s International Financial Services Centre, governed by a single unified regulator. Delivered by RRBP Global Advisors IFSC LLP, a unit in GIFT SEZ registered with IFSCA as an Ancillary Services provider (Reg. No. IFSCA/TAS/2025-26/0045).

Set-up & licensing

  • Entity structuring, incorporation and SEZ Letter of Approval
  • IFSCA registration — FME, broker-dealer, investment adviser, research analyst, distributor, depository participant
  • Banking units, insurance, reinsurance, aircraft and ship leasing
  • Bullion, Qualified Jeweller and Qualified Supplier status at IIBX
  • FinTech Sandbox, TechFin and ancillary services registration
  • Membership at India INX, NSE IFSC and IIBX

Ongoing compliance

  • Internal audit, CMI compliance audit and AML/CFT/KYC audit
  • Net worth certificates and statutory certifications
  • Monthly, quarterly, half-yearly and annual IFSCA filings
  • SEZ returns — MPR, SERF, CCR, APR and SOFTEX
  • Policy frameworks, compliance calendar and regulatory change tracking
  • Fund accounting, NAV computation and investor reporting
Why it is a separate jurisdiction. An IFSC unit sits outside India’s domestic exchange-control perimeter, transacts in freely convertible foreign currency, and answers to IFSCA rather than to RBI, SEBI, IRDAI and PFRDA separately. It also sits inside a Special Economic Zone, so the SEZ Letter of Approval governs permitted activity in parallel. The full picture on GIFT City →
