Overview
These are procedure-heavy processes involving board and shareholder approvals and, often, the NCLT. We plan the restructuring, prepare the scheme and documentation, and coordinate the approvals and filings from start to finish.
So a complex reorganisation is handled by one accountable team.

How we approach it
Frequently asked questions
What triggers a restructuring?
Consolidation, carve-outs, investor requirements, succession or tax efficiency.
Is NCLT approval always needed?
Mergers and certain schemes need NCLT sanction; some reorganisations do not — we confirm the route.
How long does it take?
It varies with the mechanism and, where relevant, tribunal timelines.
What's the difference between a merger and a demerger?
A merger combines two or more companies into one; a demerger splits a company's business into separate entities — both usually need NCLT sanction under the Companies Act.
Can a restructuring happen without going to NCLT?
Yes. A slump sale, share transfer, or setting up a subsidiary can often be done through board and shareholder resolutions plus ROC filings alone, without tribunal involvement.
What documents does a restructuring typically require?
A restructuring plan or scheme document, board and shareholder resolutions, valuation reports where applicable, and post-implementation ROC filings — we prepare and coordinate the full set.
