Financial and Tax Due Diligence Support — Examined. Quantified. Reported.
Buy-side and sell-side due diligence covering quality of earnings, working capital, tax exposures and the preparation that keeps a process moving.
Book Free ConsultationDue diligence rarely uncovers fraud. What it uncovers is ordinary: earnings that include items which will not recur, working capital that was managed down before the process, related party transactions on terms nobody documented, and tax positions taken without support.
At N D Savla & Associates, we support both sides of transactions involving businesses in Nashik and across Maharashtra — examining the target for a buyer, or preparing a business for the examination it is about to face.
Sell-side preparation is consistently underrated. Issues found by the buyer become price adjustments and indemnities; the same issues found beforehand can often simply be fixed, which is why the work is worth doing before the process opens rather than during it.
