Financial & Tax Due Diligence
Before you buy it, or before they buy you.
Diligence is where undisclosed liabilities surface: GST credit claimed and never matched, TDS deducted and not deposited, ROC filings years overdue, related-party transactions never disclosed.
On the buy side that is a price adjustment or an indemnity. On the sell side it is far better found by your own adviser three months before the process than by the buyer's during it.
We report on quality of earnings, tax exposures with quantified amounts, and the compliance gaps, ranked by what they actually cost.
What is included
- Quality of earnings analysis
- Direct and indirect tax exposure review
- ROC and statutory compliance gap report
- Quantified findings with a remediation plan
What we need from you
- Three years of financial statements and returns
- GST, TDS and income tax filings
- ROC filings and statutory registers
- Material contracts and related-party agreements
Questions
Should I run diligence on my own company before a fundraise?
If you can, yes. Everything the buyer's adviser finds becomes a negotiating point; everything you find and fix first does not. Sell-side diligence a quarter before the process routinely pays for itself in the valuation.
