The Reserve Bank of India has released the provisional results of the annual Foreign Liabilities and Assets (FLA) census for the financial year 2025-26. The survey covers Indian entities—including companies, LLPs, AIFs, and partnership firms—with inward or outward direct investment.
Scope and Significance
The FLA census captures detailed data on cross-border direct investment, portfolio investment, and external commercial borrowings. It serves as a key input for India’s balance of payments estimates and macroprudential surveillance.
For legal practitioners, the data assists in benchmarking foreign investment compliance and understanding sector-specific trends in FDI inflows and ODI outflows. Final data will be published after reconciliation and validation.
