What Promoters Are Saying

★★★★★
"The AIRA score showed us gaps we didn't even know existed — our promoter loan was a deal-breaker that would have killed our IPO at DRHP stage. We fixed it in 4 months."
R
Rajesh Mehta
MD, Auto Parts Manufacturer · Gujarat
★★★★★
"I used to think an IPO was 2–3 years away. After the AIRA assessment, I realised I was actually 14 months away. The gap report was precise — every issue with a fix timeline."
P
Priya Nair
CEO, Specialty Chemicals · Maharashtra
★★★★★
"As a merchant banker, finding pre-screened issuers was a huge pain. ipowork's AIRA scoring saves us 2–3 weeks of preliminary due diligence on every mandate we evaluate."
