Hey Zero

It seems to be quite a grey area regarding OCI/ Sec Clr. I will prob have a very firm ans. tomorrow, as I am now speaking with the right person in the right place about this issue. The DGCA don't know **** as usual - they just say yes to everything, even when it blatently means no.

I just found out today that my OCI was ready 2 months ago, but as usual when it comes to Indian Govt. Depts, no one wants to let you know when something is ready.

Back to the point - From what i'm now hearing, if you are in posession of an OCI, you do not have to undertake the Sec Clr, applicable to expats. You are now on parity with NRI's & Indian Citizens - except when it comes to voting and Agricultural Land.

Will fill you in in the nxt few days with a more definate ans
