IPO Services
Initial Public Offering (IPO) Advisory →Taking a company public through an Initial Public Offering (IPO) is the crowning milestone of an entrepreneur's journey. It transforms an unlisted private enterprise into a transparent, liquid, and institutionalized corporate institution with access to perpetual, non-dilutive public capital. However, the path to a triumphant listing is fraught with regulatory hurdles, forensic diligence requirements, merchant banker misalignments, and market timing risks.
At Glocal Consultants, we operate strictly as the Promoter's Strategic Advocate. Unlike institutional investment banks who earn commissions from institutional buyers and often push for aggressive pricing discounts, our mandate is 100% aligned with the issuing promoter. We engineer the entire IPO journey—from capital restructuring and historical accounts recast to merchant banker syndicate selection, DRHP drafting, anchor investor roadshows, and listing day price discovery.

Mainboard IPO Consultation →Listing on the Mainboard of NSE and BSE represents the ultimate financial league for established Indian enterprises. Unlike SME exchanges with trading lot restrictions, the Mainboard unlocks frictionless secondary market liquidity, enables sovereign wealth fund and FII participation, and commands premier valuation multiples across global benchmarks.
Executing a successful Mainboard IPO requires navigating rigorous SEBI ICDR disclosure standards, establishing board committees compliant with SEBI LODR, orchestrating multi-banker syndicates, and anchoring domestic mutual funds. Glocal Consultants provides end-to-end guidance, safeguarding the promoter's interest at every step of deal structuring, roadshow marketing, and price band determination.

SME IPO Consultation →The SME IPO revolution on NSE Emerge and BSE SME has fundamentally transformed funding for India's mid-market enterprises. Companies that previously relied on punitive bank loans and pledged collateral can now access public equity capital directly from institutional and high-net-worth investors.
SME IPO platforms offer streamlined regulatory pathways: filings are reviewed and cleared directly by the stock exchanges rather than SEBI, compliance costs are significantly lower, and disclosures are tailored for mid-market reality. Glocal Consultants provides end-to-end guidance from financial normalization and peer valuation benchmarking to lead manager coordination, underwriting, and seamless market execution.

Follow-On Public Offer (FPO) Advisory →For already listed corporations, a Follow-On Public Offer (FPO) is one of the most powerful institutional instruments to raise fresh expansion capital, restructure balance sheet debt, or dilute promoter holding to meet statutory Minimum Public Shareholding (MPS) norms of 25%.
Unlike an IPO, an FPO takes place in an environment where the company's equity already trades openly. This means issue pricing, market timing, market volatility, and arbitrage dynamics play an enormous role. Glocal Consultants engineers strategic FPO campaigns, utilizing fast-track SEBI mechanisms under Regulation 155, designing discount structures for retail investors, and orchestrating domestic and overseas roadshows.

Pre-IPO Funding Services →Pre-IPO funding is one of the most strategic maneuvers a promoter can execute prior to taking a company public. It provides non-debt growth capital to clean up high-interest bank debt, finance final capex milestones, and normalize working capital cycles—all while establishing an institutional valuation benchmark ahead of the public issue.
Having marquee investors, prominent business leaders, or Tier-1 family offices on the cap table ahead of an IPO dramatically enhances investor confidence when the DRHP is filed. Glocal Consultants structures pre-IPO rounds with favorable founder terms, avoiding burdensome liquidation preferences or ratchet clauses, and positioning the company for maximum price realization at Dalal Street.

Social Stock Exchange (SSE) Advisory →India's Social Stock Exchange (SSE), operating as dedicated segments on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), is a historic regulatory innovation by SEBI. It allows Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) and For-Profit Social Enterprises (FPSEs) to raise structured, transparent funding from philanthropic institutions, CSR foundations, and impact investors.
Navigating the Social Stock Exchange requires rigorous registration compliance, establishing social impact track records, issuing Zero Coupon Zero Principal (ZCZP) instruments, and undergoing formal Social Audits by certified social auditors. Glocal Consultants provides end-to-end guidance, helping social impact organizations unlock institutional philanthropic capital.

Private Placement Advisory →Private Placement is the preferred capital-raising pathway for growth-stage companies seeking equity or structured debt without undergoing the prolonged regulatory timelines and public scrutiny of an open market offering. Under Section 42 of the Companies Act, 2013 and Rule 14 of the PAS Rules, companies can issue securities to a curated group of up to 200 sophisticated investors per financial year.
Glocal Consultants acts as the lead transaction architect, preparing institutional-grade investment memorandums, conducting valuation math, managing legal documentation, and negotiating favorable term sheets with strategic family offices, private equity syndicates, and Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs).

Project Funding Advisory →Large-scale capital projects in manufacturing, infrastructure, logistics, real estate, and clean energy demand sophisticated financial engineering. Securing multi-hundred crore debt and equity syndication requires far more than basic financial projections—it demands Techno-Economic Viability (TEV) validation, debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) stress-testing, escrow cash-flow modeling, and lender consortium coordination.
Glocal Consultants provides full-lifecycle project funding advisory. We help promoters formulate optimal debt-equity ratios, secure competitive borrowing rates, manage security and collateral structures, and achieve timely financial closure to ensure projects launch on schedule without cost overruns.

Mainstream REIT Structuring & Listing →Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) have emerged as the premier institutional vehicle for developers and real estate sponsors to unlock equity capital from completed, rent-yielding commercial properties. Under the SEBI (Real Estate Investment Trusts) Regulations, 2014, REITs democratize access to institutional grade office parks, shopping malls, and warehousing logistics hubs.
Structuring a mainstream REIT requires rigorous entity structuring (Trust, Sponsor, Manager, Trustee), tax-efficient transfer of Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs), mandatory distribution modeling, and anchor syndication with global institutional investors like GIC, Blackstone, and Brookfield. Glocal Consultants provides end-to-end advisory across the entire REIT listing lifecycle.

SM REIT Structuring & Listing →In March 2024, SEBI notified groundbreaking amendments creating the Small and Medium Real Estate Investment Trust (SM REIT) framework. This revolutionary regulatory move formalizes India's rapidly growing fractional real estate ownership market, allowing developers and asset owners with commercial portfolios valued between ₹50 Cr and ₹500 Cr to issue regulated public units.
Prior to this framework, only mega-developers with ₹500 Cr+ assets could access REIT markets. Now, mid-market developers owning single commercial buildings, warehousing units, or retail spaces can create an SM REIT scheme, issue units with a low minimum investment ticket size of ₹10 Lakh, and list them on stock exchanges. Glocal Consultants is at the forefront of structuring India's first generation of SM REITs.

Rights Issue Advisory →A Rights Issue is one of the most cost-effective and equitable capital-raising mechanisms available to listed Indian companies. It offers existing equity shareholders the statutory preemptive right to purchase additional shares in proportion to their existing holding, typically at a strategic discount to the prevailing market price.
With SEBI's introduction of tradable Rights Entitlements (REs) in dematerialized form, shareholders can either subscribe to the shares or monetize their rights on stock exchange trading screens. Glocal Consultants advises listed companies on rights ratios, pricing formulas, underwriting arrangements, fast-track SEBI approvals under Regulation 99, and promoter subscription commitments.

InvIT Rights Issue Advisory →Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) listed on Indian stock exchanges require continuous capital infusions to acquire new revenue-generating infrastructure assets—such as toll roads, power transmission grids, telecom towers, and renewable energy plants—from sponsors or third parties. A Rights Issue of InvIT units enables trusts to raise non-dilutive equity capital directly from current unitholders.
SEBI has established a dedicated, streamlined regulatory framework for InvIT rights issues. Glocal Consultants provides specialized transaction advice, helping Investment Managers evaluate asset acquisition economics, model post-issue distributions (NDCF), draft the Letter of Offer, and coordinate fast-track stock exchange approvals.

InvIT Public Issue Advisory →A Public InvIT is an institutional powerhouse designed to monetize large-scale operational infrastructure projects—including national highways, power transmission lines, solar installations, and gas pipelines. Governed by the SEBI (Infrastructure Investment Trusts) Regulations, 2014, public InvITs allow retail and institutional investors to invest in high-yield infrastructure assets.
Executing a public InvIT issue requires transferring operating SPVs into the Trust, securing independent technical and financial valuations, obtaining investment-grade credit ratings (AAA/AA+), drafting the Draft Offer Document for SEBI review, and orchestrating roadshows with pension funds and sovereign wealth investors. Glocal Consultants provides end-to-end guidance through every phase of the public offering.

InvIT Private Issue Advisory →While public InvITs cater to the broad market, Privately Placed InvITs offer infrastructure developers a vastly more flexible, confidential, and streamlined capital-raising channel. Under SEBI regulations, a privately placed InvIT can be listed or unlisted and can raise equity from institutional investors, sovereign funds, and global private equity firms.
The most compelling advantage of a Privately Placed InvIT is asset flexibility: unlike public InvITs that require at least 80% completed assets, a privately placed InvIT can hold up to 100% under-construction infrastructure assets, making it the ideal vehicle for early-stage infrastructure developers. Glocal Consultants structures private placements, drafts institutional placement memorandums, and negotiates terms with global infrastructure funds.

Debt Syndication Advisory →As mid-market and large enterprises scale, relying on a single banking partner creates severe operational bottlenecks and credit ceiling constraints. Debt Syndication enables companies to raise substantial debt packages through a consortium of lenders under a unified loan agreement, managed by a Lead Arranger.
Glocal Consultants acts as the borrower's independent financial advisor. We engineer the financing structure, prepare bank-grade credit information memorandums, evaluate collateral allocations, and run competitive negotiations across public sector banks, private banks, foreign financial institutions, and credit funds to secure optimal borrowing rates and covenant flexibility.

Securitised Debt Instruments (SDI) Advisory →Securitised Debt Instruments (SDIs) represent one of the fastest-growing segments in India's structured finance landscape. Governed by the SEBI (Issue and Listing of Securitised Debt Instruments and Security Receipts) Regulations, 2008, the SDI framework allows Originators (NBFCs, fintech lenders, and commercial enterprises) to package predictable cash flows into a Special Purpose Trust (SPT) and issue listed Pass-Through Certificates (PTCs) to institutional and retail investors.
Eligible underlying cash flows include loan portfolios, vehicle lease rentals, vendor finance receivables, corporate invoice discounting pools, and commercial real estate rent receivables. In recent circulars, SEBI reduced the minimum ticket size for listed SDIs to ₹1 Lakh, unlocking massive liquidity. Glocal Consultants provides end-to-end SDI advisory from asset pool due diligence to credit enhancement and exchange listing.

Public Issued Municipal Debt Securities →Indian cities and Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) face enormous capital requirements to build 21st-century civic infrastructure—from 24/7 potable water distribution and sewage treatment plants to urban mass transit and smart city roads. Under the SEBI (Issue and Listing of Municipal Debt Securities) Regulations, 2015, municipal corporations can issue publicly listed Municipal Debt Securities (MDS).
A public issue of municipal bonds democratizes civic investment, enabling citizens, financial institutions, and ESG funds to invest in civic development. Glocal Consultants advises municipal corporations through every stage: reforming municipal double-entry accounting, evaluating revenue escrows (property tax / user fees), securing credit ratings, and executing successful public bond offerings.

Capital Raising
Privately Issued Municipal Debt Securities →While a public municipal issue creates broad visibility, a Privately Issued Municipal Debt Security allows Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) to raise institutional capital with greater speed, lower marketing overhead, and tailored repayment covenants. Under SEBI regulations, municipalities can place structured municipal bonds directly with institutional buyers—including commercial banks, insurance companies, EPFO, and Development Financial Institutions (DFIs).
Executing a private placement via the Electronic Bidding Provider (EBP) platform ensures transparent price discovery while minimizing administrative friction. Glocal Consultants provides end-to-end advisory: designing project-specific escrows, drafting the Private Placement Offer Letter, coordinating rating approvals, and anchoring institutional bids.

Corporate Finance Advisory →Corporate finance is the operational heartbeat of enterprise value creation. A company may possess market-leading products and strong top-line sales, but if its capital structure is burdened by misaligned debt maturities, punitive bank interest spreads, or suboptimal working capital cycles, shareholder value will be steadily eroded.
Glocal Consultants provides holistic corporate finance advisory. We help boards and chief financial officers evaluate their weighted average cost of capital (WACC), issue Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs) and Commercial Papers (CPs), restructure legacy debt obligations, optimize cash conversion cycles, and structure balance sheets for maximum valuation at Dalal Street.

Business Valuation Advisory →In high-stakes corporate transactions—whether an IPO price band determination, private equity infusion, cross-border M&A acquisition, or ESOP allocation—valuation is not merely an accounting calculation. It is the definitive financial argument that dictates how much equity a promoter concedes, how much capital is raised, and how tax authorities and regulators perceive the transaction.
Glocal Consultants delivers institution-grade, mathematically rigorous, and legally defensible business valuation reports. Our methodologies combine Discounted Cash Flow (DCF), Comparable Company Multiples (P/E, EV/EBITDA, EV/Sales), Precedent Transaction Multiples, and Net Asset Value (NAV), ensuring complete compliance across SEBI, IBBI, FEMA, and Income Tax authorities.
