Many organizations look at joint ventures as an ideal tool for meeting these objectives. VNV advises its clients in JV strategies, including helping its clients to evaluate a potential JV partner for suitability, considering the objectives for entering into a Joint Venture. Structuring a Joint Venture is critical, as it must address the diverse objectives of two or more partners. The foreign companies have been actively pursuing JV opportunities in India and VNV has helped many such companies from different jurisdictions to formalize their JV and have also helped them in monitoring the JV relationship on an on-going basis. More and more Indian businesses have set-up JVs outside India, either in a green-field or a brown-field project. VNV has led the team of its client for the JV formation process, including negotiating with the JV partner for the terms of engagement.

The services of VNV includes structuring the JV, support in legal, financial and commercial terms, drafting of agreements, negotiations and discussions with the JV partner, valuations and feasibility studies of the projects, and so forth. Our experience is across several territories and jurisdictions and involves different industrial segments, including technology, infrastructure,  trading , Contracting, manufacturing and services. At times, various entities within a group may be required to be merged into a single corporate entity for various reasons like tax efficiency, creation of synergy, cost efficiency and reduction of compliances. This requires expert structuring and designing of the merger strategy for implementing it in the most efficient manner. VNV helps its clients to execute these processes in the most cost effective manner.
