Secured my business loan at 6.5% thanks to CA Vijay Singh — fast, smooth, and with better terms than my own bank offered.
When we started working with CA Vijay Singh, our financials were… let’s just say, not investor-ready. Over the next year, with his guidance, we filed everything on time, cleaned up our books, and set up proper compliance systems. When the time came to scale, we needed funds quickly. Because our records were now accurate and well-structured, Vijay ji was able to prepare a lender-friendly profile, highlight our strengths, and present it to the right banks/NBFCs. Result? Loan approved in under two weeks at competitive terms. I realised then that good fundraising starts long before you approach lenders — and having the right CA makes all the difference
When we started looking for investors, we had zero revenue on the books — just a strong idea, a capable team, and a big vision. I knew convincing investors would be tough without sales numbers. CA Vijay Singh & Team changed the game. They prepared a professional valuation report backed by a detailed market analysis that highlighted our industry potential, target audience, competitor positioning, and scalability. It wasn’t just numbers — it was a story investors could believe in. That report became the foundation of our pitch. Within weeks, we raised ₹2 crore in funding. Multiple investors said the depth of our market analysis was what gave them confidence to invest in a pre-revenue startup. If you’re raising funds before revenue, skip the generic pitch decks.

Your accountant focuses primarily on historical compliance, bookkeeping, and tax filing. A Virtual CFO focuses on the future—strategic planning, cash flow forecasting, interpreting financial data to drive business decisions, and preparing your company for investors.
Preparation time varies based on the maturity of your startup and the quality of your existing records. Generally, we recommend allocating 4-8 weeks to develop robust financial models, finalize valuations, and prepare the data room for due diligence before actively pitching investors.
The best instrument depends on your stage and goals. CCDs (Convertible Debentures) are often used in very early stages to delay valuation discussions as they start as debt. CCPS (Convertible Preference Shares) are typically preferred by VCs in priced rounds as they offer specific investor protections. We help you analyze the trade-offs for your specific situation.
We use a blend of investor-accepted methodologies appropriate for your stage, such as Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) for more mature startups, comparable transaction analysis, and the Venture Capital Method. We ensure the valuation is justifiable both for investors and for statutory compliance (e.g., Income Tax Act requirements).
The most frequent issues we see are incomplete documentation, messy capitalization tables (Cap Tables), inconsistent founder/employee agreements, and unresolved statutory compliance issues. Our support proactively addresses these before investors identify them.
