The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has proposed easing the geo-tagging requirement for Non-Resident Indian (NRI) clients during their re-KYC or KYC process.
Key Highlights:

- Digital onboarding and Video Client Identification Process (V-CIP) can be used instead.
- Purpose:
- Simplifies compliance for overseas investors.
- Follows multiple stakeholder representations seeking streamlined KYC procedures.
- Public Consultation:
- SEBI has invited public comments on the draft circular before finalising the proposal.
Significance:
- Reduces compliance burden for NRI investors.
- Facilitates ease of investment from abroad while maintaining regulatory oversight.
