Understanding Pre IPO Readiness: Financial and Governance Requirements
A concept course for CFOs, finance controllers, corporate development teams and founders of late-stage Indian companies who need to know what IPO readiness actually requires before the bankers arrive. It covers the financial, controls, governance and capital structure requirements, from SEBI ICDR eligibility and restated Ind AS financials to SEBI LODR board composition, related party transactions, promoter contribution and cap table clean up. Each lesson explains why the requirement exists and where Indian companies typically fall short, so you can judge how far your company is from a fileable DRHP.
