Gone are the days when compliance and corporate governance were perceived as a cost benefit in the short run. Especially, with the startup boom, many entrepreneurs are embracing GRC (Governance, Risk Management & Compliances) to nullify the risk of failure and are looking for a complete hand holding and solutions to increase their future valuations, while large corporates are keenly following processes and systems to become Indian MNCs. Most SMEs who used to obtain just one stream of services from local professionals are also realizing the need for all-round expert advice. Unfortunately, most of the professionals barely have expertise in one area with local presence. And it's difficult for them to serve a client with holistic approach of covering risk and developing control systems, whereas large consultants are available at Metro city with high cost.

Born in 2009 as a solution to all these issues, India Business Solutions (IBS) offers affordable

one-stop advisory services for legal, financial, taxation and structuring with same standards, which helps startups and established players to grow in competitive business environment.

During due diligence process, IBS once recommended a client to implement BCC (Business Cycle Controls), which helped them to achieve double the valuation than expected, while raising funds. Likewise, another client, who was incurring operational losses, started making profits after implementing BCC as per IBS' advice.
