Founded in 2017 by Sathya Pramod and Shivadutt Bannanje, Kayess Square operates at the intersection of finance, governance, transactions, and law. The firm offers CFO advisory, M&A and transaction advisory, due diligence, valuation, risk management, tax advisory, and secretarial services, complemented by a fractional CFO platform. According to its website, Kayess Square has executed more than 4,000 projects and served over 100 clients across stages and sectors. The company bolstered its capabilities in 2025 by acquiring the tax compliance and tax advisory division of Consark Advisory Services LLP, expanding its direct and indirect tax offerings. Revenues were not disclosed, but the firm positions itself as a comprehensive partner for institutionalisation, capital raising, and scaling operations. Looking forward, Kayess Square plans to attract top-tier talent, deepen domain expertise, and selectively expand into new geographies to build a scaled, institution-led advisory platform. These initiatives aim to help businesses and investors navigate growth, capital, and governance amid increasingly complex regulations.
