Seven capabilities,
deeply held.

M&A is the practice we are built around. We act as lead financial advisor on sell-side and buy-side processes for promoters, founders, family-owned conglomerates and financial sponsors — from confidential single-buyer transactions to fully marketed competitive auctions.

Our approach is partner-led from origination through closing. We do not package mandates and pass them to junior teams; the partner who pitches is the partner who runs the process. We take a small, deliberate number of M&A mandates each year and stay close to every one — from valuation and positioning through negotiation, definitive documentation and post-signing execution.

We work fluently across sectors and across the India-inbound, India-outbound and intra-India axes. On cross-border transactions, we co-ordinate tightly with tax counsel, regulatory counsel and offshore structuring advisors to deliver a single integrated outcome to the client.

We are a trusted point of access to a curated network of domestic and global financial sponsors — from large-cap buy-out funds and growth platforms to specialty credit funds, family offices and pension-led capital. Our coverage is partner-led, relationship-deep and built over years rather than weeks.

We advise GPs on portfolio engagement, exit pathways and platform build-outs; we advise LPs on direct co-investment and secondary opportunities; and we advise promoters and operating companies on structuring partnerships with sponsor capital. On the GP-led secondary and continuation-vehicle side, we work alongside fund counsel and specialist secondary advisors to deliver integrated solutions.

Our edge is not a directory — it is the depth and honesty of our sponsor relationships. We are valued by GPs precisely because we do not over-shop mandates.

Some of the most important questions our clients face never fit a single transaction. Where should capital be deployed, and against what horizon? How should a family-owned group be re-architected for the next generation? How should a holding company be designed for tax, succession and cross-border deployment?

Our strategic-advisory practice exists for those long-arc questions. We engage on a retainer or project basis with founders, promoters, family-owned conglomerates and single-family offices — diagnosing, designing and helping execute against multi-year roadmaps.

We work alongside the family's existing legal, tax and wealth advisors. We are not trying to replace them — we are trying to be the partner who thinks in capital, sectors and conviction, and who sits in the room when the long-term call has to be made.

Disputes are inevitable in the arc of any operating business. Well-handled, they close cleanly and preserve enterprise value; poorly handled, they compound cost and damage. We advise founders, promoters, family-owned groups, boards and family offices on the strategy, economics and structuring of commercial disputes, arbitration proceedings and dispute resolution — from pre-litigation posture through settlement, enforcement and recovery.

We are not litigation counsel. We are the financial and strategic advisor that works alongside counsel — assessing quantum, evaluating settlement economics, structuring commercial resolutions, and helping the client hold the line where it matters. On domestic and cross-border arbitration (ICC, SIAC, LCIA, DIAC), we coordinate closely with arbitration counsel, forensic accountants and quantum experts.

Our practice covers commercial-contract disputes, promoter and shareholder disputes, IP and trademark actions, insolvency-linked claims and cross-border enforcement. Where useful, we also connect clients with specialist third-party funders who underwrite dispute risk on a non-recourse basis.
