1. Do you wish to set up the company as a resident individual? Permission of RBI would be required. The registrar of companies in India cannot incorporate a company outside India.

2. Under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme, all resident individuals, including minors, are allowed to freely remit up to USD 125,000 per financial year for any permissible current or capital account transaction or a combination of both. Under this Scheme, resident individuals can acquire and hold shares or debt instruments or any other assets including property outside India, without prior approval of the Reserve Bank. Individuals can also open, maintain and hold foreign currency accounts with banks outside India for carrying out transactions permitted under the Scheme.

3. The remittance facility under the Scheme is not available for the following

i) Remittance for any purpose specifically prohibited under Schedule-I (like purchase of lottery tickets/sweep stakes, proscribed magazines, etc.) or any item restricted under Schedule II of Foreign Exchange Management (Current Account Transactions) Rules, 2000;

ii) Remittance from India for margins or margin calls to overseas exchanges / overseas counterparty;

iii) Remittances for purchase of FCCBs issued by Indian companies in the overseas secondary market;

iv) Remittance for trading in foreign exchange abroad;

v) Remittances directly or indirectly to Bhutan, Nepal, Mauritius and Pakistan;

vi) Remittances directly or indirectly to countries identified by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) as “non co-operative countries and territories”, from time to time; and

vii) Remittances directly or indirectly to those individuals and entities identified as posing significant risk of committing acts of terrorism as advised separately by the Reserve Bank to the banks.

4. So RBI does not permit setting up of companies abroad by resident individuals.

To start or set up a company in India you do not need any permission from ROC , India.

Setting up of company in abroad is only guided by the local laws and regulations of the particular country which varies from state to state.

To run the company registered in foreign locations in no way requires permission of RCO,India.

1) if you want to set up company in kenya you would need permission from registrar of companies kenya .

2) you dont need permission from ROC india

If this virtual online research university registered in india then you can induct students from any part of world.

Only if you set up class room in abroad then only it requires permission for which you need to set up a new entity as the current entity can not set up class room either in India or in abroad.

1. For starting a company in kenya you shall have to take approval from the Registrar of Companies at Kenya,

2. For starting operation in foreign country by an indian conpany, permission from ROC in India is not required.

1. Yours will be virtual university to be operated on line and there will be no physical establishment to be set up at Kenya,

2. No RBI approval for the said operation is required.

1. If this is going to be a virtual online university which has already been registered as a company in India then you do not need to form a company in Kenya to induct students therein.

2. No permission from RBI or Registrar of Companies of India is required for an Indian company to operate online. Students can be inducted from any part of the world.

1. The jurisdiction of RBI and Registrar of Companies of India is coterminous with the territorial jurisdiction of India. None of these two institutions can allow a company to operate in a foreign land.

2. If you wish to set up a company in Kenya then permission will be required from Kenya's Registrar of Companies.

since you are establishing virtual online university you would not need approval of RBI or that of ROC

2) you can admit students from any part of the world
