IPO Advisory

An honest diagnostic
of where you really stand.

A structured review of your company's financial, legal, governance and operational readiness against SEBI ICDR Regulations and exchange criteria — before you commit to a timeline.

Most IPO setbacks trace back to gaps that were knowable years in advance. A readiness assessment surfaces them early — when there's still time and runway to fix them cheaply, rather than under deadline pressure with the whole syndicate watching.

What we assess.

The assessment spans four dimensions: financial readiness (quality of earnings, audit-grade statements, working capital, related-party transactions), legal and regulatory standing (corporate structure, litigation, compliance history), governance maturity (board composition, internal controls, policies) and operational readiness (MIS, systems, the management bandwidth to carry a listed company's obligations).

What you receive.

You receive a candid, prioritised gap analysis — not a sales document. It tells you what stands between the company and a credible filing, ranks those gaps by severity and effort, and lays out a realistic timeline to close them.

For many founders, this is the most valuable single engagement we offer: it replaces optimism with a clear-eyed plan, and it does so before any irreversible commitments have been made.
