Common questions
What is the best entity structure for a startup?
For most VC-backed startups, a Private Limited Company is strongly recommended due to ease of equity issuance, ESOP implementation and investor preference. We assess your specific situation before recommending.
How do I get DPIIT recognition for my startup?
We handle the entire application — eligibility assessment, documentation preparation and submission on the Startup India portal. Recognition unlocks tax benefits, faster IP registration and government schemes.
When should a startup engage a Virtual CFO?
Typically after raising a seed round or when monthly revenue exceeds ₹25-50 lakhs — when the financial complexity outgrows basic bookkeeping and investors start asking for structured reporting.
Can you help structure ESOPs for our team?
Yes — we design ESOP pools, vesting schedules and exercise price, and advise on the legal structure, valuation and tax implications for both the company and employees.
