What the assessment covers

Six dimensions, weighted into one score

A listing does not fail for one reason. It fails because a profitable company has an unconverted constitution, or a clean board has qualified accounts, or a strong balance sheet has no equity story. The assessment scores each dimension separately, then tells you which one is holding you back.

01

Financial track record

Three years of profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow, turned into the ratios that decide eligibility and pricing — operating margin, return on capital, leverage, interest cover and cash conversion.

02

Regulatory eligibility

Every mandatory test for NSE Emerge, BSE SME and both mainboard routes, applied line by line to your numbers, with the reason for each pass or fail stated in plain language.

03

Governance and board

Board composition, independent directors, committees, key appointments and the governance policies an offer document is checked against.

04

Statutory compliance

MCA, GST, income tax, labour law, statutory registers, audit qualifications, litigation and tax disputes — the items that surface first in diligence.

05

Capital structure

Shareholding, promoter contribution, dematerialisation, convertibles, and the related-party and promoter-loan positions that must be cleaned before filing.

06

Transaction readiness

Objects of the issue, business plan, intermediaries and the equity story — what turns eligibility into an issue that actually prices well.

How it works

About an hour of your time, once

Have your last three audited financial statements to hand. Everything else is information you already know about your own company.

  1. 01

    Create your account

    A secure login holds your working draft, so you can fill the form over several sittings and come back to it.

  2. 02

    Enter company and promoter details

    Constitution, incorporation, industry, registered office, shareholding and the promoter contact who will own the process.

  3. 03

    Enter three years of financials

    Profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow for the last three completed financial years, in Rs lakh. The form computes subtotals and checks that the balance sheet ties as you type.

  4. 04

    Answer the governance and compliance questions

    Straightforward yes-or-no declarations about the board, committees, filings, audit history, litigation and issue plan.

  5. 05

Your report

Written to be read by your board

Not a score and a traffic light. A document you can take into a board meeting, print, or send to your auditor and merchant banker as the starting agenda.
