Diligence & Governance

Governance built
for life as a listed company.

Board composition, independent directors, audit committees, insider-trading and RPT policies, and post-listing compliance under SEBI LODR Regulations.

Investors look closely at how a company is run. We help you move from founder-led decisions to the board processes, committees and policies a listed company needs, and we help you run them after listing.

Board & committees.

We help you structure a board with the right mix of executive, non-executive and independent directors, and constitute the Audit, Nomination & Remuneration and Stakeholders' Relationship Committees required under the Companies Act and SEBI LODR.

Policies & post-listing compliance.

We draft the policies a listed company must have, such as the code of conduct, related-party transaction policy, insider-trading code, whistle-blower mechanism and risk management policy. After listing we help with quarterly disclosures, shareholder communication and LODR compliance.

We stay on after listing to help with compliance, governance and investor relations.
