Fragmented advice
Five vendors and five invoices, with no single owner of the outcome.
Startup Advisory · India
Build the company. We handle everything around it.
One partner from incorporation to institutional capital — entity, books, filings, model, deck, data room, and the raise itself. A single engagement, a single thread of accountability.
The problem
Founders don't fail at building.
They drown in everything around it.
Taking a company from idea to funded typically means a CA for incorporation, a CS for filings, a lawyer for agreements, a consultant for the deck, and a banker for the raise. Five vendors, coordinated by the founder — none accountable for the outcome.
Every handoff costs time, money, and credibility with investors.
Compliance debt
Missed ROC, GST and TDS filings surface at diligence — exactly when they cost the most.
Never investor-ready
No model, data room or narrative ready when the funding window opens.
The founder time tax
Hours burn on paperwork and follow-ups instead of product and revenue.
What we do
One partner across the entire lifecycle.
Four integrated practice areas. One engagement. One thread of accountability from the first filing to the final signature.
Incorporate
The company is born clean — structured for investment from day one, not restructured for it later.
- Entity structuring — Pvt Ltd / LLP
- MCA incorporation, PAN / TAN
- Founders' agreement
- ESOP pool setup
- DPIIT / Startup India recognition
Comply
Books and filings that stand up to diligence — maintained monthly, never reconstructed under pressure.
- Accounting & monthly MIS
- ROC & secretarial filings
- GST / TDS returns
- Payroll & labour registrations
- Audit readiness
Build
The materials investors actually screen for — built to institutional standard before the window opens.
- Financial model & projections

- Pitch deck & collateral
- Data room assembly
- KPI dashboards
Raise
Not introductions — execution. A run process from first outreach to money in the bank.
- Investor mapping & targeting
- Warm outreach & scheduling
- Term sheet negotiation
- Due diligence management
