Dear Ms Shruti
 
There is no special procedure as such. But for FDI there is a rstriction. It falls under approval route. Single Brand retailing is allowed only upto 51% i believe.
 
Also for retail Support Services there is no restriction which is not core retail.
 
But back door  entry from foreign Retail Gaints is the order of the day. It may be thru' franchising (which defeats the intention of the legislators..)
 
Members correct me if i am wrong.

Dears,

  

The FDI in retail business in India is permitted up to 51% with Prior Government Approval for retail trade in ‘single brand’ products only. The detailed guidelines issued by the GOI vide press note 3(2006 series).

 

 Press notes 2, 3 and 4 in February 2009 have made a swiping change in this situation. The press notes simplify the method for calculating FDI and broadly state that as long as Indian promoters hold a majority stake (more than 51 per cent) in any operating-cum-investing company, it can bring investment up to 49.9 per cent through FDI. This company would be treated as an Indian company and it can invest through a joint venture in any other company that may be engaged in industries in which FDI has a sectoral limit. Several companies like retailer Pantaloon and media house UTV have restructured their organisations to raise FDI in their businesses through step-down joint ventures — FDI is prohibited in multi-brand retail and is restricted to 26 per cent for media  (http://www.business-standard.com/india/news/rbi-government-dividedfdi-relaxation-in-press-notes/356331/)

 

“In one sweep, therefore, any sectoral cap of 49 per cent and below has become meaningless in so far as downstream investment by a company with foreign investment below 50 per cent and qualifying as an Indian owned and controlled company,”  However, RBI has raised an objection to this.

 

Thanks & Regards

Dattatri
