Corporate Advisory & Strategy
In a quest to grow, management gets more focused to increase Sales, giving relatively lesser importance to other critical aspects as efficiencies, wastages, costs and cash-flow's. We do a thorough review on the business from SHAREHOLDERS EYE and advise critical levers, which if fine-tuned, can improve the profitability and the cash flows.
Growth is never by mere chance; it is the result of forces working together.
