📧 What happens after you pay

Once your advisory fee (₹19,999) is received, Lekha begins the ESOP pool design and scheme documentation. A separate payment link for ₹74,999 (Merchant Banker fee) will be sent to the email address you enter below within 1–2 business days. This payment goes directly to the SEBI-registered Merchant Banker — Lekha does not receive any portion of it. The Merchant Banker will issue their own GST invoice to you after payment.

Advisory scope & statutory workLekha coordinates and manages this engagement.
