Summary of Foreign Exchange Management Act,

1999

(Source: Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 issued by Govt, of India)

Introduction:

The Foreign Exchange Regulation Act of 1973 (FERA)in India was repealed on 1st June,

2000. It was replaced by the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA), which was

passed in the winter session of Parliament in 1999. Enacted m 1973, in the backdrop of

acute shortage of Foreign Exchange in the country, FERA had a controversial 27 year

stint during which many bosses of the Indian Corporate world found themselves at the

mercy of the Enforcement Directorate (E.D.). Any offense under FERA was a criminal

offense liable to imprisonment, whereas FEMA seeks to make offenses relating to foreign

exchange civil offenses.

FEMA, which has replaced FERA, had become the need of the hour smce FERA had

become incompatible with the pro-liberalisation policies of the Government of India.

FEMA has brought a new management regime of Foreign Exchange consistent with the

emerging frame work of the World Trade Organisation (WTO). It is another matter that

enactment of FEMA also brought with it Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002

which came into effect recently from 1st July, 2005 and the heat of which is yet to be felt

as “Enforcement Directorate” would be invesitigating the cases under PMLA too.

Unlike other laws where everything is permitted unless specifically prohibited, under

FERA nothing was permitted unless specifically permitted. Hence the tenor and tone of

the Act was very drastic. It provided for imprisonment of even a very minor offence.

Under FERA, a person was presumed guilty unless he proved himself innocent whereas

under other laws, a person is presumed innocent unless he is proven guilty.
