Dissent needs thought

Dissent needs attention

Dissent needs rigor

For every seemingly instinctive action, there has to be years of deliberate thought and inaction. Dissent means you're standing tall against the world. In a world that is hungry for more, Do less, but Do it Right, it always wins.

A letter from the Leadership

The genesis of this firm is the discovery we had that there is an apparent need of trustworthy professionals who meet at the confluence of strong subject matter expertise and a keen business acumen providing valuable counsel to young modern Indian businesses, keeping in mind Indian traditions and context. In a bit more ancient sense, modern-day monks and gladiators, working for the clients with the utmost integrity remembering their fiduciary duty and professional ethics.

That is the beginning of Dissentfrom the existing order. Dissent Advisory is a people first organization, in the age of non-human intelligence. To that effect, Dissent will be built 'people first'. We are keeping the bar very high for who we represent and for who can represent our brand to the world.
