FAQs

How do you define connected parties?

Connected parties are defined in IBC (2016) and also the Companies Act 2013. We have explored the definitions in detail here and here. At SignalX, our goal is to be as thorough as possible in connected party identification so that the Resolution Professional has a broad set of entities to include or exclude from the final report. If the target, i.e, the resolution applicant, is an entity, we identify the promoters, associated entities, subsidiaries, key managerial personnel, directors, past directors, shareholders with more than 2% fully diluted shareholding as the level one connected parties.

Other entities where the promoters, directors, KMPs, key shareholders are in management control, promoters and directors and KMPs of associate companies and subsidiaries, the family tree of individuals in level one connected party network form the Level 2 connected party network of the target.

The user can also choose to go further deeper into Level 3 in a similar format. You can talk to our Product Specialist by booking a meeting with us to understand our approach bette

Do I need to provide you with a list of connected parties?

No. However, if you have a list of connected parties provided to you by the resolution applicant, you can share the same with us under a non-disclosure agreement. We can verify and enhance the provided list using our own connected party identification methodology.

Do you also identify family members?

Father’s names of promoters, directors, and KMPs are identified from the PAN details wherever available. Details of Mother, Spouse, Siblings, Children, Children of Siblings, Father’s Siblings, and Mother’s Siblings are provided by the user in specific cases where the Resolution Professional wants to be thorough on the eligibility assessment.

Do you run Section 29A ineligibility checks on individuals?

Yes. You can use SignalX to analyze entities, individuals, proprietors, consortiums, partnership entities, trusts, and other forms of businesses.

Do you provide signed reports?

No. We’re an analytics utility and public data research platform that does deep-dive research on any given target. We offer reports in a standardized format that have been directly used across 250+ CIRPs. If the Resolution Professional requires a signed declaration of eligibility or ineligibility of a target, the RP may share our report with any law firm for the same. The complete data dump of the research can be exported along with the report to substantiate the findings.

What sources do you use to conduct the checks?

We pull data directly from thousands of sources including courts, regulators, corporate registry, media, tribunals, law enforcement, watchlist, and more. Connect with us over a call to take a look at the detailed list of data sources we cover in our analysis.

Do you interact with the target to execute the checks?

No. We do not interact with the given target in any capacity. The analysis executed is based on data made available by regulators, government agencies, law enforcement agencies, courts, watchlists, and more.

What is the turnaround time for the analysis?

For a target with a connected party network for 20 entities, the entire analysis including the reporting is executed in 48 hours. Thereafter for every 20 additional connected parties, the analysis may take an additional 24 hours.

Do you analyze foreign resolution applicants?

Yes, we do. For our clients, we have analyzed resolution applicants from countries like Singapore, Mauritius, BVI, UK, Brazil, USA, Ethiopia, and more. You can talk to our sales team to understand the scope of checks we execute in these jurisdictions.

How reliable is your data?

We procure our data directly from the specific regulatory authorities in real-time. Meaning SignalX does not rely on a pre-existing internally stored database but we pull the data fresh for every analysis directly from the source. This allows us to provide the latest litigation, regulatory, and media data for our users, keeping in mind the criticality of the checks we execute.
