Why boards work with Transjovan Capital
Partner-led on every mandate
A partner stays on your work from first discussion to board presentation. No handovers to junior teams.

Our team includes ex-CEOs, CFOs, board members and M&A bankers, with an average of 20 years of experience each.
Independent point of view
We advise, we do not invest as principal. You get a view built around your strategy, not a product to buy.
Board-ready reporting
Pipeline, synergy and portfolio updates prepared in a format your board can review each quarter.
Global reach, one team
Offices in New Delhi, New York, Paris and Sydney support cross-border questions across four continents.
Deep sector grounding
Industrials, B2B Services, Consumer and Emerging Technology, led by people who ran businesses in them.
What strategic board advisory covers
Our partners work with boards through the full business lifecycle, not just around a single transaction. The focus is on your most critical capital allocation and growth questions: where to invest, what to build, what to buy, what to exit and how to govern the outcome.
Board advisory can sit on its own or run inside our Corporate Development as a Service (CDaaS) model, where strategy, buy-side M&A, Day-1 readiness, post-merger integration and synergy governance are handled by one embedded team on a multi-year retainer.
- Capital allocation and growth strategy discussions with the board
- Acquisition strategy, whitespace mapping and multi-deal pipeline management
- Annual portfolio reviews and inorganic growth roadmaps
- Joint venture evaluation, formation and integration advice
- Divestiture and carve-out advisory
- Commercial due diligence, valuation and synergy case development
- Post-merger integration oversight and synergy tracking dashboards
- Quarterly board-ready reporting on integration and synergy programmes

Frequently asked questions
How are board advisory engagements priced?
Fees depend on scope, sector and how long the board wants support. Our CDaaS mandates are multi-year retainers, while a focused board question can be scoped more narrowly. We set out the basis in writing before any work starts.
Who do you usually work with?
Boards, promoters, CEOs, CFOs and corporate development heads at large acquisitive enterprises, family-owned groups and emerging high-growth companies. We do not provide personal financial or wealth advice.
Can you support us outside India?
Yes. We have offices in New Delhi, New York, Paris and Sydney, and our team has handled cross-border mandates across four continents covering the US, Europe, India and APAC.
Do you only advise when there is a deal?
No. Strategic board advisory covers capital allocation, growth strategy, annual portfolio reviews and joint venture questions, whether or not a transaction follows.
How is this different from hiring a Big 4 firm?
Every mandate is partner-led. Our team is made up of ex-Big-4 advisors and former CEOs, CFOs and board members, with an average of 20 years of experience each, so the people you meet are the people doing the work.
Can you also run the work after the board decides?
Yes. Through CDaaS we can act as your embedded corporate development team, covering target sourcing, diligence, Day-1 readiness, integration PMO and synergy governance with board-ready reporting.
