We are pleased to present the July 2026 edition of our IFSC Newsletter, bringing together the key regulatory developments, consultation papers, policy updates, amendments, and institutional updates issued by the International Financial Services Centres Authority (‘IFSCA’) during the month. The newsletter highlights key regulatory updates and their implications for IFSC stakeholders. 

This edition also features two thought leadership articles exploring the RBI’s FCNR(B) Swap Facility and its role in cross-border banking, and the removal of the DGMA licensing requirement for chartering activities in IFSC. It also highlights the amendment to Rule 157 of the Income Tax Rules, 2026, a key tax development for the IFSC ecosystem. 

We hope you find it insightful and engaging.
