Our services
see it in actionOver the years, we have built strong relationships across the financial sector. We give small businesses and smaller divisions of larger firms access to equity & debt from both formal & informal institutions.
Our specialisms are education, hospitality, consumer, retail, distribution & manufacturing, with deals typically between USD 1 million & USD 30 million. Our work spans end-to-end fundraising & non-fund banking services such as SBLCs, factoring & trade finance.
We help businesses access markets across specific industries allowing for the business to scale in a very short period of time and at a fraction of the cost it would otherwise cost to establish a sales & marketing organisation. This is done through our network of the best retailers, multi-product chains & distribution houses across India.
Our expertise is niche. We link people to numbers - structuring ESOP plans, designing management compensation strategies, and creating growth-focused variable pay frameworks that drive measurable impact. Our training programs are built to deliver clear financial outcomes, with systems that help clients track and evaluate results well beyond the engagement.
A large manufacturing client engaged us to advise & implement a complex international debt swap & non-fund based facilities worth $650M — far beyond our typical mandate size. Leveraging our deep relationships across RF, GCC, MENA, and even in the World Bank, we crafted routes rarely undertaken. The project remains in progress with significant milestones achieved.
A South Indian family office engaged us in 2020 to replace high-cost INR debt with USD debt. In 2023, we advised a $35M PE infusion into their consumer business.
The following year, we arranged $12M in debt for their diversified ventures and a $120M non-fund-based facility for their commodity trading arm—delivering multi-year, multi-solution advisory.
We structured $22M in credit and convertible equity financing for a leading Bangalore-based education institution, enabling expansion of an innovative learning model with backing from a major NBFC and a US Education Fund. In 2022, we strengthened their capital structure by swapping high-cost debt and securing an additional $5M from another NBFC.
Every partnership begins with understanding your business & where you want to go next. Reach out to explore how we can help you raise capital, scale efficiently, or structure for long-term growth.
