Investment & Growth Advisory

Before capital is committed, the question is whether the project is worth doing at all — and on what terms. We appraise the opportunity, test the numbers, structure the deal and set the growth path that follows.

How we work

From investment to industrial success — in six stages.

Most industrial projects are handed between a feasibility consultant, a liaison agent, a subsidy consultant, an EPC contractor and an automation vendor. Every handover is a gap, and the promoter carries the risk in all of them. We hold the whole line.

  1. 01You are here

    Evaluate

    Is this project worth doing?

    Feasibility, due diligence, risk assessment and deal structuring — before capital is committed and while changing course is still cheap.

  2. 02

    Plan

    What exactly are we building, and where?

    Detailed project report, technology and process selection, site identification and plant layout. The document set that lenders, boards and authorities actually act on.

  3. 03

    Approve

    What clearances and incentives apply?

    Licences and statutory clearances secured in the right sequence — alongside the central and state incentives the project qualifies for, claimed before the eligibility window closes.

  4. 04

    Build

    Who carries execution risk?

    Turnkey erection, installation, testing and commissioning under project management control, with cost and schedule tracked against the sanctioned plan.

  5. 05

    Operate

    How do we run it well?

    Automation, ERP and MES, a developed vendor ecosystem, staffing and the environmental and governance reporting that customers and lenders now demand.

  6. 06

    Scale

    Where does the next phase of growth come from?

    Capacity expansion, diversification, joint ventures, export markets and government supply channels — planned as deliberately as the original project.

FAQ

Common questions

How is this different from a DPR?
A DPR assumes the project is going ahead and documents it for lenders and authorities. Investor advisory asks the prior question — whether it should go ahead, on what terms, and at what price. Many clients commission the appraisal first and the DPR only once the decision is made.
Will you tell us not to proceed?
Yes, where the evidence supports it. Our fee is not contingent on the transaction closing, which is deliberate — a recommendation that only pays if you invest is not an independent recommendation.
We already know we want to expand capacity. Do we need this?
Not always. If the decision is settled and the constraint is genuinely capacity, move straight to project consulting for the DPR. This service is for when the right growth path is not yet obvious, or when the capital available cannot fund every option on the table.
Do you handle the approvals for a brownfield expansion?
Yes, through our approvals practice. It matters that this is planned early — consent to operate amendments, environmental clearance thresholds and factory licence revisions frequently apply to expanded capacity and can take longer than the construction itself.
Do you provide legal, audit or statutory certification services?
No. We advise on compliance frameworks and regulatory strategy, but any service reserved to a licensed profession — statutory audit, legal opinion, certification — is rendered only through appropriately qualified and licensed professionals. Where you need one, we will say so and coordinate with them.
How long is a typical engagement?
A diagnostic alone runs three to four weeks. A diagnostic plus design and implementation support in the prioritised areas typically runs three to six months, depending on how many areas are in scope and the pace the business can absorb.

Discuss a investment & growth requirement.

A short conversation is usually enough to tell you whether the project is viable, what it will take, and what it should cost. There is no charge for that first discussion.
