Detailed Scope & Process
What Is Equity Funding Advisory?
Equity funding advisory helps a business raise capital by issuing shares or convertible instruments to investors. It covers valuation context, dilution planning, investor targeting, documentation and the process of closing the round.
Equity is permanent capital and does not carry repayment obligations, but it dilutes existing shareholders and brings investor rights, governance expectations and exit considerations. Advisory helps founders and businesses weigh these factors before committing.
Who Needs Equity Funding Advisory?
- Startups raising seed, angel or venture capital
- Companies raising growth equity
- Businesses planning to admit a strategic investor
- Founders evaluating term sheets and dilution
- Companies preparing for a future institutional round
When Is Equity Funding Advisory Required?
Advisory is useful before starting a raise, when comparing equity with debt or other funding, when reviewing term sheets and when preparing documentation and data rooms. It is also useful when a company is planning a valuation discussion.

Legal and Practical Considerations
Share issuance must comply with the Companies Act, 2013 and, where non-resident investors are involved, FEMA. Investor rights such as board seats, liquidation preference, anti-dilution and exit clauses can materially affect founders and future rounds. Consistency with the Articles of Association is important for enforceability.
Common Mistakes
- Raising at an unrealistic valuation","Accepting complex investor rights without understanding them","Ignoring dilution and future round implications","Inconsistent documentation with the Articles","Not preparing a data room before meetings"]
