Fundraising Compliance Roadmap

Startup Fundraising — Compliance Roadmap

Every Indian startup fundraising round triggers a structured set of compliance requirements: (a) pre-deal — board / shareholder approvals, FC-NRBI / FC-GPR pricing certification, term-sheet review, valuation report under Rule 11UA(2) for resident investors, FEMA pricing for non-resident investors; (b) deal-execution — SHA / SSA drafting, definitive agreements, condition-precedent management, escrow setup; (c) closing — share allotment, PAS-3 filing within 30 days, FC-GPR filing within 30 days for non-resident investors, share certificate issuance with stamp duty; (d) post-closing — annual FLA return, ongoing investor reporting, board composition compliance, ESOP pool refresh.

This roadmap tool sequences required filings from term-sheet to closing. For end-to-end fundraising support — including SHA negotiation, FC-GPR filing, ESOP pool design, and subsequent-round preparation — consult CA V. Viswanathan at +91 99622 60333.
