M&A management

The deal workspace that writes the diligence report.

Most data rooms store documents. Augment does the diligence: India-specific corporate, tax and regulatory checks that global VDRs don't run, and every risk flag, Q&A answer and tribunal link flowing into the report, the SPA, the disclosure letter, consents and post-closing obligations.

Why we built it

Global data rooms store documents. They don't know what a CIN, a DIN or a Press Note 3 approval is. Augment reads a deal the way Indian deal counsel does, and writes the diligence report from it.

8Diligence categories, from corporate and tax to litigation and regulatory

6India-specific checks: MCA21, directors, regulatory triggers, tax, stamp duty, labour

4Report types: full-scope, limited-scope, vendor DD and lender DD

Start here · Target exposure scan

Enter a CIN. Get an exposure report in minutes.

Before a data room exists, screen any company. Augment scans litigation, insolvency, corporate records and regulatory exposure, and returns a one-page summary with severity ratings and a detailed annex. Every item is source-linked with a “last synced” time.
