AML & PMLA Compliance Support by N D Savla & Associates

FIU-IND registration is not a formality. It is a legal obligation under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). If your entity is classified as a reporting entity and you miss this step, the risk isn’t theoretical. It’s regulatory action, penalties, and inspection exposure.

At N D Savla & Associates, we help entities register with FIU-IND and set up reporting systems that actually work in practice, not just on paper.


What Is FIU-IND?

The Financial Intelligence Unit – India (FIU-IND) is the central national agency responsible for receiving, processing, and analysing financial transaction reports under the PMLA framework.

Reporting entities are required to:

  • Register with FIU-IND

  • File prescribed transaction reports

  • Maintain AML and record-keeping systems

  • Cooperate with regulatory and enforcement authorities


Who Is Required to Register with FIU-IND?

FIU-IND registration is mandatory for all reporting entities, including:

  • NBFCs and banks

  • Asset Reconstruction Companies

  • Payment system operators

  • Insurance companies

  • Capital market intermediaries

  • Other entities notified under PMLA

If your entity handles financial transactions, FIU-IND compliance likely applies.
