Attention of Authorised Dealers (ADs) is invited to A.P.

The purpose codes for foreign exchange purchase/ sale transactions, used for filling up of the cover page of R-Return have since been revised, vide A.P.(DIR Series) Circular No. 84 dated February 29, 2012. It has therefore become necessary to revise the list of purpose codes appended to Form A-2 also. The revised list of purpose codes along with Form A-2 are thus attached for use by the applicants for remittance of funds abroad.
2. The directions contained in this circular have been issued under Section 10(4) and Section 11(1) of the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (42 of 1999).
Yours faithfully,
