We provide comprehensive investment banking services to support businesses at every stage of growth. From capital raising and strategic advisory to mergers, acquisitions, and restructuring, our team delivers tailored financial solutions that maximize value, optimize capital structures, and drive long-term success.
Transforming Private Enterprises into Public Market Leaders Going public is a transformative milestone that demands more than just financial success; it requires a fundamental shift in corporate governance, transparency, and operational discipline. At Corporate International Financial Services Limited, we act as the architects of your public listing journey. We do not just prepare you for the transaction; we prepare your organization for life as a listed entity.
Our role is to sit on your side of the table, acting as your strategic advocate to ensure that when you approach the market, your value is maximized, your compliance is impeccable, and your story is compelling.
Bridging the gap between private agility and public accountability. Before a single document is filed with regulators, your organization must undergo a rigorous diagnostic to ensure it can withstand public scrutiny. We manage the "Private-to-Public" transition, ensuring no surprises arise during due diligence.
Conducting a comprehensive audit of your current financial reporting, secretarial records, and internal controls against SEBI (ICDR) and Stock Exchange listing norms.
Restructuring your Board composition, forming required committees (Audit, Remuneration), and drafting policies to meet Corporate Governance standards.
Assisting your finance team in restating financial statements (as per IndAS) to ensure they meet the specific formats required for the Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP).
Proactively identifying and fixing historical non-compliances in ROC filings, tax matters, or labor laws to ensure a "Clean Due Diligence" report.

Building robust, multi-year financial projections that withstand the stress tests of merchant bankers and valuation analysts.
Advising on the consolidation of shareholding, promoter grouping, and cleaning up the capitalization table to make it attractive for public investors.

Helping you identify, interview, and negotiate mandates with the right set of SEBI-registered Merchant Bankers, Legal Counsels, Registrars, and Market Makers suited to your industry and size.

Capital is the fuel for growth. We ensure you get the right fuel, at the right price, on the right terms. Raising capital—whether equity from VCs or debt from banks—is a full-time job that requires specialized financial articulation. A great business model often fails to raise funds because the financial narrative doesn't speak the language of the investor.
At Corporate International Financial Services Limited, we act as your Financial Architects. We translate your business vision into "Bankable" and "Investable" propositions. We don't just hand you a report; we equip you with the financial logic, valuation defense, and structured data required to close deals confidently.
Turning your business vision into an institutional-grade investment thesis. Investors review hundreds of decks a week. To stand out, your pitch needs a compelling narrative backed by irrefutable financial logic. We prepare you to face the scrutiny of institutional investors.
We move beyond standard slides to craft a comprehensive Information Memorandum (IM). We articulate your "Equity Story"—highlighting market opportunity, competitive moats, unit economics, and scalability.
We build robust, dynamic financial models (3-5 year projections) that allow investors to toggle assumptions. We stress-test your revenue, margins, and cash flows to ensure your projections withstand due diligence.
Valuation is both an art and a science. We help you arrive at a justifiable pre-money valuation using multiple methodologies (DCF, Comparable Company Analysis, Precedent Transactions) so you don't leave money on the table during negotiations.
We assist in organizing your virtual data room (VDR) with all necessary due diligence documents (legal, financial, compliance) to accelerate investor decision-making.
Protecting your interests beyond the capital injection. The highest valuation isn't always the best deal. The fine print in a Term Sheet—liquidation preferences, anti-dilution clauses, and board control—can define your future exit. We act as your strategic sounding board during these critical negotiations.
We review Term Sheets from potential investors to identify "red flags" and restrictive covenants. We advise on commercial terms to ensure a fair balance between investor protection and founder autonomy.

Working alongside legal counsels to ensure the commercial understanding of the deal is accurately reflected in the final definitive agreements.
Speaking the language of Bankers and Credit Committees. Securing debt financing requires precise technical documentation. Banks do not fund "ideas"; they fund "risk-mitigated cash flows.We prepare the rigorous documentation required to pass credit committee approvals.
For greenfield or expansion projects, we draft comprehensive DPRs covering Technical Feasibility and Economic Viability (TEV), market potential, and ROI analysis required for term loans.
We prepare the Credit Monitoring Arrangement (CMA) data in the specific formats mandated by RBI and lenders. This includes precise calculation of Maximum Permissible Bank Finance (MPBF), Drawing Power, and key ratios (DSCR, Current Ratio).

We assist management in answering technical queries raised by credit analysts and risk officers during the appraisal process, ensuring the proposal moves smoothly through approval stages.
We help organizations adapt, evolve, and grow in an increasingly complex business environment. Our consulting approach focuses on strengthening strategy, improving operational efficiency, and building scalable frameworks that drive long-term performance and sustainable success.
Pre-empting risks before they become liabilities. Most compliance gaps are discovered too late—usually during a Due Diligence process by an investor or a notice from the authorities. We take a proactive approach, acting as your internal "Devil’s Advocate" to identify and fix issues before they escalate.
We conduct a "Mock Diligence" of your statutory records—simulating the scrutiny of an investor’s legal team. We review your historical filings to ensure your organization is "Transaction Ready" at all times.
A comprehensive review of your Secretarial records, including Board Minutes, Annual Returns (MGT-7/AOC-4), and Share Certificates, to ensure they align perfectly with the Companies Act, 2013.

If historical non-compliances are found, we advise on the most efficient compounding or amnesty schemes to regularize the company’s status with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA).
