Open the one you need.

Each row opens to what it covers and what you get.

Integrity Due Diligence

Deep background on a counterparty, promoter or partner: corporate structure and beneficial ownership, litigation, regulatory and enforcement history, adverse media, political exposure and sanctions, and the undisclosed connections a database search will not show. Enhanced diligence with discreet human-source and field checks where the stakes demand it.

Corporate Due Diligence

Verification of an entity as it really is before you contract, invest or onboard: corporate filings, ownership and directorships, litigation and regulatory record, premises and operations confirmed on the ground, and reputation as the market actually reports it.

Section 29A Ineligibility Checks

Full page

Fast, documented checks on resolution applicants, their promoters, connected persons and group entities: wilful defaulter status, NPA exposure, disqualifications, criminal antecedents and undisclosed relationships with the corporate debtor.

Insolvency matters are won on what the transaction trail actually shows. We work alongside IBC counsel, resolution professionals and lender committees as an independent forensic and intelligence partner. Section 29A checks are fast, documented checks on resolution applicants, their promoters, connected persons and group entities, so that an ineligible applicant is identified before the committee of creditors votes, and integrity diligence is available on promoters seeking a return.

NPA exposure across the applicant and its group entities
Disqualifications of the applicant, its promoters and directors

Senior Management Due Diligence

Integrity and antecedent checks on directors, promoters and key managerial personnel before an appointment, a deal or a listing: litigation, regulatory history, undisclosed interests and reputational issues, so nothing surfaces after the decision is made.

Pre-Investment Due Diligence

Pre-deal integrity, forensic and anti-bribery diligence for private equity, venture and strategic investors: management integrity, related-party and fund-flow review, third-party exposure and the compliance programme, so the investment committee decides on verified facts rather than the data room alone.

Third-Party Due Diligence

Screening and unwinding of distributors, agents, consultants, vendors and franchise partners to ultimate beneficial owner, with discreet human-source and field checks, for onboarding and continuous monitoring through automated third-party risk management.

Red Flag Due Diligence

A fast, focused screen that surfaces the disqualifying issues first: sanctions and PEP hits, litigation and enforcement history, adverse media and undisclosed connections, delivered as a red-flag alert so you know whether a full review is warranted before you spend on one.

Anti-Bribery & Anti-Corruption (ABAC) Due Diligence

Full page

Beyond database screening: programme review, books and transaction testing, tone-at-the-top interviews and third-party UBO screening, reported in the language a regulator, deal committee or auditor can use.

A clean sanctions and adverse-media list is where we begin, not where we end. We test the client's own controls and how money actually moves, through distributors, agents, consultants and liaison partners, and write findings in the language a regulator, a deal committee or an auditor can use. Digital forensics is deployed on email and messaging where red flags demand it.

Does the target have a compliance programme that operates, or a code that was never disseminated and a whistle-blower channel that is dormant?
How are distributors, agents, consultants and liaison partners actually paid, and is there a deliverable behind each payment?
Are commissions, consultancy fees, CSR, gifts and hospitality and petty cash supported by contracts and deliverables?
How are approvals and government interactions really obtained?
Who ultimately owns the key counterparties, and are any of them linked to insiders?
What does the exposure mean for valuation, deal protections and remediation, and does FCPA or UK Bribery Act reach extend to the investor?

Pre-IPO Promoter & KMP Diligence

Deep background on promoters, directors and key managerial personnel before the DRHP is filed, including litigation, regulatory history, undisclosed interests and reputational issues, with forensic review of related-party and fund-flow disclosures so nothing surfaces after filing.
