Legal & Secretarial Due Diligence in Pune

Before an investment, acquisition or fundraise, due diligence tells you what you are really buying — and what to fix before you do.

Overview

We conduct structured legal and secretarial due diligence covering corporate records, statutory compliance, contracts, litigation and title, and deliver a clear risk report.

For companies preparing to raise or sell, we also run sell-side diligence so you fix issues before an investor finds them.

Frequently asked questions

Buy-side vs sell-side diligence?

Buy-side protects an investor/acquirer; sell-side helps a company clean up before going to market.

How long does it take?

It depends on company size and record quality — we scope timelines upfront.

What are common red flags?

Missed ROC filings, unsigned agreements, unclear cap tables and pending disputes.

How far back does a typical due diligence review go?

Usually the full life of the company for corporate and statutory records, and a reasonable recent period, often 3-5 years, for contracts and litigation, depending on scope agreed.

What if diligence uncovers a serious issue mid-transaction?

We flag it immediately with severity and remediation options, so you and your counterparty can decide how to proceed — price adjustment, condition precedent, or walking away.

Is due diligence only relevant for large companies?

No — even early-stage startups benefit from a lightweight diligence check before their first institutional round, since basic gaps are common and easy to fix early.
