Corporate Advisory
Day-to-day and board-level counsel on structure, governance, shareholder arrangements and transactions.
Most corporate problems are structural, and most structural problems are cheap to fix early and expensive to fix later. LexNova's corporate advisory practice sits alongside founders, boards and in-house teams on the decisions that set that structure — how equity is held, how control is exercised, how a group is organised and how value eventually exits.
We advise on the Companies Act, FEMA implications of foreign ownership, and the practical governance that keeps a company financeable and saleable. The output is a decision you can act on, not a memorandum of options.
What this service covers
Day-to-day and board-level counsel on structure, governance, shareholder arrangements and transactions.
Structure with the exit in mind
Cap tables and holding structures built so a future investment or sale does not require unwinding them.
Governance that scales
Board processes, delegations and reserved matters proportionate to the size of the business.
One team across disciplines
Corporate, tax-adjacent and regulatory input coordinated rather than sequenced.
Frequently asked questions
- Do you act as outside general counsel?
- Yes. Several clients retain us on an ongoing basis for board support, contract review and regulatory questions instead of building an in-house team.
- Can you advise foreign parent companies on their Indian subsidiary?
- Yes — including FEMA and FDI considerations, intra-group agreements, transfer of shares and governance of the Indian entity.
- When should a company bring in corporate counsel?
- Before the structure is fixed, not after. Shareholding, board composition, reserved matters and exit rights are far cheaper to design correctly at incorporation or first funding than to renegotiate during a dispute or a diligence exercise.
- Do you advise on shareholder and founder arrangements?
- Yes — shareholders' agreements, founder vesting, anti-dilution and tag/drag rights, plus the corresponding articles amendments so the contractual position is enforceable against the company.
- Can you act as outsourced in-house counsel?
- We offer retainer arrangements where a named partner handles day-to-day queries, contract review and board support, which suits companies that need continuity without a full in-house team.
- Do you advise foreign companies setting up in India?
- Yes — entity selection, FDI route and sectoral caps, FEMA reporting, and the commercial contracts and employment documentation an Indian operation needs from day one.
