Joint Venture Agreement – Before Money Moves
JVs combine strengths — and multiply the ways things can go wrong. Capital versus expertise, control versus contribution, and the exit nobody wants to discuss: a good JV agreement addresses all of it while the partnership is still enthusiastic.

Overview
What this agreement actually covers
A joint venture agreement is the contract between two or more parties combining resources for a shared business objective.
It records each party's contribution — capital, assets, technology, expertise, or market access — and the equity or profit share each earns.
Governance is central: board composition, reserved matters, voting rights, and day-to-day management authority.
It defines the JV's scope and non-compete obligations, so parties don't compete with the venture they co-own.
Exit provisions — buy-sell mechanics, deadlock resolution, and termination — are what separate durable JVs from litigated ones.
Benefits
Why businesses get this drafted through us
Open each benefit to see what it means for you.
Contributions valued fairly
We help structure how non-cash contributions (technology, brand, expertise) are recognised against capital — the most negotiated part of any JV.
Control matched to stake
Board seats, reserved matters, and veto rights are calibrated so control reflects the real bargain, not just the shareholding.
Deadlock broken by design
Russian roulette, Texas shootout, or mediated buyout — we build a deadlock mechanism suited to your JV before you need it.
Exits priced, not fought
Buy-sell formulas and valuation mechanics are agreed now, when both sides are reasonable.

Joint Venture Agreement process — step by step
You’ll see each stage, what’s pending and what we need from you — so filings don’t bounce back.
Step 1 of 5
Choose the JV structure
We advise whether a new company, LLP, or contractual JV suits the business — and check FEMA sectoral caps and approval routes if a foreign partner is involved. The structure decides the entire drafting approach.
We draft the agreement
Our lawyers draft the agreement covering capital contributions, shareholding, board composition, reserved matters, management, non-compete, technology transfer, funding obligations, transfer restrictions, deadlock resolution, term, and exit. First draft typically takes 5-7 working days.
Negotiate control and exit
Board seats, veto rights, and exit mechanics (buy-sell, put/call options) take the most negotiation. We help partners reach terms that protect both sides.
Regulatory clearances
We flag Companies Act, 2013, FEMA, and competition law (CCI) requirements — including filings if thresholds are crossed.
Stamp duty and execution
The agreement is executed on stamp paper of adequate value — stamp duty varies by state. If a new JV company is formed, we can handle incorporation as a follow-on.

Showing 6 of 6 answers
Usually yes — a JV company (or LLP) gives limited liability and clean governance. Contractual JVs without an entity suit only narrow, project-specific collaborations.
Typically 7–10 working days for the first draft, plus negotiation rounds between parties.
A pre-agreed mechanism to resolve situations where JV partners can't agree — such as one party buying out the other at a formula price. Without one, deadlocks end in court.
Yes, subject to FDI policy for the sector and FEMA compliance. We structure the agreement with those requirements built in.
Through agreed valuation methodology — independent valuation, formula-based, or negotiated value recorded in the agreement. We draft the mechanism that fits.
The agreement's transfer restrictions, lock-in periods, and buy-sell provisions govern it. We draft these to balance commitment with realistic exit paths.
