FCRA designated bank/utilization accounts to be brought on online platform of Public Finance Management Service for random scrutiny.

Changes in FCRA Rules

As per Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Rules, 2015 notified in Gazette of India on 14.12.2015, the Bank shall report to the Central Government within forty-eight hours any transaction in respect of receipt and utilization of any foreign contribution by any person whether or not such person is registered or granted prior permission under the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act, 2010.
