Transaction Structuring

We help analyzing potential acquisition/divestment/restructuring and financing options to ensure tax, as well as transaction cost optimization. We help guide the transaction structure against compliance requirements with respect to direct and indirect tax, SEBI, FEMA, RBI, anti-trust as well as insolvency regulations. We help you balance commercial and regulatory objectives.

Our experience suggests that in many instances strategic, operational, or financial assistance is called for too late, when the range of potential solutions has narrowed significantly, and time pressures dominate the decision-making process.
