Services · Pre-funding
Bankable DPRs and feasibility studies for new projects in India and abroad — from candle plants in the USA to copper mines in Zambia.
Overview
Detailed Project Reports and feasibility studies that a lender can act on: market, technical, cost and financial chapters prepared by the same engineers and Chartered Accountants who deliver our TEV work.
International assignments include feasibility studies for residential and commercial developments in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, a copper mining project in Zambia, a denim plant in Ethiopia and a manufacturing facility in North Carolina, USA.

Deliverables

Questions
A feasibility study answers whether a project should be undertaken and on what basis. A Detailed Project Report sets out how it will be built, financed and operated, in enough detail for a bank to lend against it.
Yes. Our Chartered Accountants build the model with the engineers who prepare the technical and cost chapters, so that the assumptions are consistent across the report.
No. Independence requires that the lender’s TEV study is prepared by a firm that did not write the promoter’s DPR.
Yes. Assignments have been completed in the UAE, Oman, the USA, Ethiopia, Zambia, Uganda and Ghana.
