Deal Structuring

Vendor Due Diligence (VDD)

A due diligence report commissioned by the seller before going to market, shared with prospective buyers to streamline and speed up their own diligence process.

Seller Example

Promoter of a ₹40 Cr Ahmedabad textile processing unit commissions a VDD report before launching a competitive sale process, pre-empting buyer-side surprises, controlling the narrative around EBITDA add-backs, and compressing the overall deal timeline from a typical 5 months to under 10 weeks by giving every bidder the same clean starting point.
