Hi, I’m part of a private offshore capital desk. We’re looking to fund short-term PO execution for real MSMEs with confirmed buyer orders. This is not a loan, it is a profit-based funding model. We need someone to help us source, filter, and verify MSMEs with real POs, GST/Udyam, and a capital gap of ₹5–₹25L. If you have clients in this situation, I’d like to work with you on a deal-by-deal basis.

That sounds like a great initiative to support MSMEs with working capital! Here’s how you could approach this to effectively source and verify genuine MSMEs for your profit-based funding model:
1. Sourcing MSMEs with Real POs Connect with Industry Associations (like MSME Chambers, local trade bodies, export promotion councils) — they often have verified members with active POs.
Engage GST and Udyam registered MSMEs through digital platforms or local business networks.
Use consultants or CA firms who work with MSMEs and can recommend credible clients needing working capital.
2. Verification Process Validate Purchase Orders by cross-checking with the buyer — ideally directly contacting the confirmed buyer.
Confirm MSME status via Udyam Registration and verify GST compliance.
Assess financials for a capital gap of ₹5L to ₹25L by reviewing recent bank statements, sales invoices, and credit history.
3. Filtering & Due Diligence Check for operational track record (6-12 months active operations minimum).
Verify no major legal or tax defaults.
Perform background checks on promoters and business reputation.
4. Collaboration & Deal Flow If you have networks or clients in the MSME sector, you can inform them about this profit-sharing funding opportunity.
You can also partner with financial advisors, business consultants, or CA firms who can act as intermediaries.
