From DPIIT recognition and Udyam registration to ESOP structuring, investor-ready financials, and corporate architecture built for scale — everything your startup or MSME needs to grow with confidence and compliance.
Whether you are registering your first startup, accessing MSME benefits, building an ESOP scheme, preparing for a funding round, or structuring your business to attract institutional capital — we are the advisor you need beside you.
DPIIT recognition under the Startup India initiative unlocks a powerful set of benefits — a three-year income tax holiday under Section 80-IAC, exemption from angel tax on share premium under Section 56(2)(viib), simplified compliance norms, and fast-track patent examination. Yet many eligible startups miss out simply because they have not filed for recognition or have done so incorrectly. We assess your eligibility, prepare the application, and obtain your DPIIT recognition certificate — along with downstream filings to claim the benefits.
An Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP) is one of the most powerful tools a startup has for attracting and retaining talent when cash compensation is constrained. But a poorly designed ESOP — with incorrect vesting schedules, missing board and shareholder approvals, improper fair value computation, or incorrect perquisite tax treatment — creates serious legal and tax exposure for both the company and employees. We design, document, and implement ESOP schemes end-to-end: from scheme design and tax modelling to SEBI-compliant documentation for listed companies and MCA filings.
Udyam Registration — the official MSME recognition portal of the Government of India — entitles eligible businesses to a wide range of government scheme benefits: priority sector lending, collateral-free loans under CGTMSE, protection against delayed payments under MSMED Act (MSME-1 form), lower GST compliance burden, access to government procurement portals (GeM), and various state-level incentives. The registration is Aadhaar-based, free of cost, and lifelong — but must reflect the correct NIC code and financials. We handle registration, updates, and downstream filings.
Investors evaluate financials as rigorously as they evaluate product. A pitch deck with vague revenue assumptions, unsupported burn projections, or an unclear path to unit economics profitability signals financial immaturity — even if the product is strong. We work with founders to build the financial narrative behind the pitch: detailed revenue models, cost structure analysis, unit economics (CAC, LTV, payback period), 3–5 year financial projections, and funding deployment plans — presented in formats familiar to angel investors, VC firms, and bank credit teams.
Most startups begin with a simple structure — a single private company with founder shareholders. But as the business scales, takes on foreign investors, expands into new geographies, or targets an acquisition exit, the original structure often becomes a liability: inefficient from a tax perspective, unattractive to certain classes of investors, or legally incompatible with the intended exit path. We advise founders and promoters on the right corporate architecture for their growth trajectory — choosing between a domestic holding company, an overseas holding structure, a subsidiary network, or an operating company model — and we execute the restructuring cleanly and tax-efficiently before the next funding round or strategic event.
Understanding which recognition unlocks which benefits helps you prioritise the right registration for your business stage and sector.
A structured four-step engagement — from understanding your business stage and goals to registrations, structuring, and investor-ready documentation that keeps pace with your growth.
We begin by understanding your business model, incorporation date, shareholding, revenue, and growth objectives — mapping the right registrations, structures, and advisory services to your exact stage.
We file for DPIIT recognition, Udyam registration, and any other applicable government schemes — and simultaneously prepare your ESOP policy, founder agreements, and statutory documentation.
We advise on corporate structure, build your financial model and projections, and design the ESOP scheme — producing investor-ready deliverables that can withstand due diligence scrutiny.
We stay engaged as your business grows — advising on each funding round, updating the financial model, administering the ESOP, and restructuring the corporate architecture as your scale and investor base evolve.
From solo founders filing for DPIIT recognition on day one, to growth-stage companies designing multi-layered ESOPs and restructuring for overseas investors — we have been the financial and compliance backbone for startups and MSMEs across sectors.
We understand the startup context — fast decisions, evolving cap tables, investor timelines, and the pressure of a funding round. Our advice is calibrated for speed and commercial reality, not just compliance.
ESOP design, DPIIT benefits, corporate structuring, and financial modelling all sit at the intersection of law and finance. We bring both disciplines into every engagement so you get coherent advice, not siloed opinions.
Every financial model, ESOP scheme, and structure we build is designed to withstand investor due diligence — so you can walk into a term sheet conversation with confidence, not corrections to make.
We grow with you — from your first DPIIT registration to Series B structuring to exit planning. A single advisor who knows your history is far more valuable than starting fresh at every inflection point.
Whether you need DPIIT recognition today, a Udyam certificate, an ESOP scheme for your core team, a financial model for your next raise, or strategic corporate structuring advice — we are ready to help you move fast and build right.
