Due diligence implies the investment appraisal through assessment of key risks in a business of potential investee and the contributory factors that derive cash flows and profits. Investee can be a complete business or a segment, identifiable organised part of a business, an asset or group of assets, shares in the business, which is termed as shares, business or assets mergers and acquisition.

Why it is necessary to conduct Due Diligence?
