Dear Sir,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would request you if you can provide information about the provisions of FCRA and other laws related to a person who is a foreign citizen of Indian origin with an OCI card retired and moved to India to start an NGO from his personal savings working abroad: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Will the money he contributes to start and run his NGO be in violation of FCRA act. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Can that person be on the board of the directors and member or trustee? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Can such person receive donation from his friends and family who are OCI holder settled abroad? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Can such NGO get special permission to receive foreign funds? Can his NGO receive donations in Indian currency from visiting foreign national volunteers not Indian origin volunteers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Can he use his NRO or NRE bank account in India to fund his NGO? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
6. Does it make in all above cases if the person acquired the Aadhar Card (by law an OCI holder can get Aadhar after stay in India for 182 days in the last one year). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can you please help me answer the questions that my NRI friend had inquired?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
