Frequently Asked Question
How is Term Sheet used?
A term sheet is an agreement that is executed between the prospective investor and the company.
It is usually entered into before the process of due diligence begins and it lays a foundation on which the more definitive documents, such as Share Subscription and Shareholder's Agreement are prepared at a later stage.
Is Term Sheet always non-binding?
A Term Sheet is usually non-binding document by the very nature of it. With that being said, nothing stops the parties from entering into a binding Term Sheet.
In fact, a few clauses of the Term Sheet, such as governing law and dispute resolution, NDA, etc. are usually kept binding.
What happens after the parties have executed Term Sheet?
After the parties have executed the Term Sheet, the lenghty and crucial process of due diligence follows on the investee company, and afterwards, the parties enter into more definitive documents, such as Shareholder's Agreement, to give legal and binding effect to the investment.
Is it mandatory to enter into a Term Sheet?
No. It is not mandatory to enter into a Term Sheet.
However, most investors and founders prefer to enter into a Term Sheet that lays out the foundation of the major terms, upon which the definitive documents are later prepared.
Who prepares and presents the Term Sheet?
Usually, it is the investor who presents the Term Sheet to the founders of the investee company.

Pramod Krishna , Bangalore
We were raising funds for our small handicraft startup; I had no idea about the term sheet we received from one of our investor. I went for a review with LegalKart. They helped me understand all the implication of written in it. I felt so comfortable that we also used their Share holder's agreement service also and I am a regular customer of their consultancy service.
Shikha , Lucknow
We as a startup had recevied a term sheet from one of our known investor friend. Although we trusted them but I was not very confident of its terms and the language was also very legal. I decided to use LegalKart's TS review and I was right, there were many things were not aware of and we would have signed on a term sheet we might have regretted later. Amazing product, very convenient and worth every penny spent.
