What is an Indian Subsidiary Company?
An Indian Subsidiary Company is a business entity formed in India that is either wholly or partly owned by a foreign parent company. If the parent company holds more than 50% of the shares, it is called a subsidiary; if it holds 100%, it’s a wholly-owned subsidiary. This setup allows foreign businesses to operate in India under Indian laws — while enjoying global ownership, control, and tax benefits. Most Indian subsidiaries are formed as Private Limited Companies for flexibility and credibility.
Minimum Requirement for Indian Subsidiary:
- Minimum two directors are required for incorporation of the Company. At least one should be a resident of India.
- No minimum capital required to form an Indian Subsidiary Company in India.
- Indian Subsidiary Company must have minimum of two shareholders. Shareholders can be either individual or any entity or a combination of both.
