Subsidiary Company Registration in Pune

Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) are instrumental to the economic growth of a country like India. And keeping the same in mind Indian government allows NRIs and foreign nationals to invest in India by permitting 100% FDI through automatic routes in most industries. We see offshore offices of many MNCs in Pune due to the same reason. Some of the benefits of registering a subsidiary in Pune are permanent establishment in a resource-rich environment, easy and online registration process, strategic control over operations, and limited liability of investors. NRIs or Foreign Nationals can register a new subsidiary private limited company following the same process as mentioned above in no time.
