FAQs

What does a corporate advisory firm do?
A corporate advisory firm helps businesses navigate company structuring, regulatory compliance, and capital market transactions such as IPOs and M&A. Unisys Corporate Advisory provides end-to-end support from incorporation and governance design to SEBI filings and post-listing compliance for startups, SMEs, and growing enterprises across India.
What is the difference between an SME IPO and a Mainboard IPO?
An SME IPO lists a company on NSE Emerge or BSE SME with relaxed eligibility norms, suited to smaller businesses, while a Mainboard IPO lists on the main NSE/BSE platforms with stricter SEBI requirements around capital, track record, and disclosures. Unisys advises issuers on both, including eligibility assessment.
How long does the SME IPO process take in India?
An SME IPO typically takes 9 to 18 months from initial assessment to listing, depending on company readiness. Stages include eligibility assessment, financial restructuring, DRHP preparation, SEBI and exchange filings, and post-listing compliance. Companies that start governance restructuring early generally complete the process faster.
What is a DRHP and why is it required?
A DRHP (Draft Red Herring Prospectus) is a preliminary document filed with SEBI before an IPO, disclosing a company's financials, business model, risks, and use of proceeds. It is mandatory for both SME and Mainboard listings. Unisys prepares and reviews DRHPs as part of full-cycle IPO advisory.
Who needs IPO advisory services?
Companies planning to raise capital through public markets whether via NSE Emerge, BSE SME, or Mainboard platforms need IPO advisory to manage SEBI compliance, financial restructuring, and offer document preparation. This includes SMEs preparing for their first listing and larger enterprises pursuing Mainboard IPOs.
How do I know if my company is ready for an IPO?
IPO readiness depends on financial track record, governance structure, board composition, and regulatory compliance history. Unisys assesses readiness across these dimensions and recommends a structured roadmap — covering financial restructuring, governance upgrades, and compliance gaps — before initiating the formal SEBI filing process.
How much does IPO advisory cost in India?
IPO advisory fees vary based on transaction size, complexity, and the listing platform (SME vs Mainboard). Unisys Corporate Advisory structures fees individually per engagement rather than publishing fixed rates, since IPO readiness work scopes differently for each issuer.
