Startup Compliance Setup

From incorporation to first audit.

The lawyers handled incorporation. Then the list begins: statutory registers, board minutes, FEMA filings, ESOP documents, a DPDP posture, employment templates, and a first-year ROC cycle nobody is watching. You do not need a compliance department. You need the whole list handled at a flat price, done right, and handed over as a clean file when you raise.

What it does

One engagement that takes a newly funded company from incorporation through its first year-end. We handle the statutory setup, the first-year filings, and the founder-facing templates — bundled and priced flat.

What's included

Entity & registers. Statutory registers established and maintained; board and shareholder formalities handled.

ROC filings. The full first-year filing cycle, prepared and filed on time.

FEMA & FDI. Foreign-investment reporting and compliance, where applicable.

Employment. Offer letters, employment agreements, and policy templates.

IP & ESOPs. IP assignment and the basics of an ESOP pool, documented.

DPDP basics. A starter data-protection posture — notice, consent, and processor terms.

What you get

• Entity, statutory registers, and ROC filings handled through year one
• Founder-friendly templates for employment, IP assignment, and ESOPs
• FEMA and DPDP basics covered from day one
• A clean, diligence-ready file for your next round

How it runs

Intro call. Thirty minutes to learn what you have set up and where the next round is.

Flat-fee proposal. One number for the bundle, inside two working days.

Setup. Three to six weeks, with weekly check-ins on a shared channel.

Standing relationship. Most startups stay on the lightest retainer afterwards for filings and the platform. Leave any month.

Who it's for

Funded teams from pre-seed to Series C that need to be compliant from day one without hiring a full compliance function.
