A & H Ventures is a Mumbai-based advisory practice working with established Indian businesses and international clients at critical moments of decision — succession, acquisition, global trade, customs duty audit, industrial project management, and food and hospitality operations.

This catalogue sets out all eight service areas, the engagement process behind each, and the experience of the two partners who lead every mandate. It is written with the same candour we bring to client conversations: we are in our first formal client year, our frameworks are proven through decades of operating experience, and we share our own ERA score — 72/100, Conditionally Ready — with everyone we meet.

Every engagement begins the same way: a no-obligation conversation. If there is something worth exploring, we will say so. If there is not, we will say that too.

Most people know India makes textiles. Very few know India has 12 distinct technical textile categories — filtration, medical, construction, geotextiles, packaging, protective wear, and more — each with its own export trajectory, government scheme, and competitive dynamic.

This report maps the full sector at the level of depth you’d expect from primary research, not a Google summary. Sector structure, export landscape, PLI scheme analysis, regulatory framework, and strategic trends for buyers, investors, and market entrants. APA 7 format, 10-lens audited.

Most ETA programmes teach you how to find a business. Very few prepare you for what happens the day after you own one.

The Sarthi Accelerator is built around that gap — ten weeks of structured work, live deal review, and a cohort of people doing the same thing you are. This guide tells you exactly what that looks like: the curriculum, the assessment framework, how the cohort is structured, and what you leave with.

The same business can be worth ₹2 crore or ₹8 crore depending on who’s calculating and what method they use. For Indian MSMEs — where accounts are inconsistent, owner compensation is mixed into profit, and goodwill is entirely personal — the gap between methods is even wider.

This guide covers six valuation methods applied specifically to Indian MSMEs, explains when each applies, and shows how to adjust for the realities of owner-operated businesses. Written for buyers, sellers, and advisors who need to know the number before negotiating one.

A deal that looks clean at LOI can quietly fall apart — across accounts receivable, employee agreements, supplier dependencies, or undisclosed liabilities that surface three weeks before close.

This playbook gives both the buyer and the seller a structured way through: what to check, when to check it, how to negotiate the hard moments, and what a proper transition actually requires. Two editions — Operator (buyer-side) and Seller — written from the perspective of someone who has sat on both sides of the table.
