The short version

Ganesh Kishore is listed as an executive officer and director on 6 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Jan 2012 and May 2014: Glori Energy Inc. (Houston, TX — oil and gas — 2014; $15.8M reported sold to 11 investors) and Glori Energy Inc. (Houston, TX — oil and gas — 2012–2014; $12.8M reported sold to 10 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 2 years. Across those companies the filings report $28.6M sold in total.

Listed alongside John Clarke (6 shared filings), Jonathan Schulhof (6 shared filings), Matthew Gibbs (6 shared filings), Michael Schulhof (6 shared filings), Stuart Page (6 shared filings) and 12 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Ganesh. Each name links to their own page.

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Glori Energy (2 issuers, $20.8M reported sold, 2009–2014).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Glori Energy has 2 companies on file and $20.8M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 6 public filings for Ganesh Kishore and found 10 differences: Form D filed 16 days after the first sale; Form D filed 18 days after the first sale; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

10 differences found between the filings for Ganesh Kishore (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Apr 14, 2014 – Apr 30, 2014

Form D filed 16 days after the first sale — Glori Energy Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Apr 14, 2014. The Form D was filed Apr 30, 2014 — 16 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 1 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Note · Apr 30, 2013 – May 16, 2013

Form D filed 16 days after the first sale — Glori Energy Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Apr 30, 2013. The Form D was filed May 16, 2013 — 16 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 1 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Note · Dec 30, 2011 – Jan 17, 2012

Form D filed 18 days after the first sale — Glori Energy Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Dec 30, 2011. The Form D was filed Jan 17, 2012 — 18 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 3 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Apr 14, 2014 – May 6, 2014

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Glori Energy Inc. (latest filing May 6, 2014)

The latest filing for this offering is dated May 6, 2014 (first sale Apr 14, 2014). It reports $15,779,856 sold of $25,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Note · May 16, 2013 – Mar 27, 2014

Ganesh Kishore's role changed at Glori Energy Inc.: director → executive officer

The May 16, 2013 filing lists Ganesh Kishore as director; the Mar 27, 2014 Form D lists executive officer.

Same name, different state: "Ganesh Kishore" (CO or CA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is TX. A separate record, "Ganesh Kishore" with address state CO or CA, is listed on 17 filings — most recently by Provivi, Inc. (Sep 28, 2026). Both records have filings in the same period (Jan 17, 2012 to May 6, 2014).

What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

This page covers filings where the address state is TX. A separate record, "Ganesh Kishore" with address state L3, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by Consumer Physics, Inc. (Jul 3, 2018). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Jan 17, 2012 to May 6, 2014; the other runs Oct 26, 2017 to Jul 3, 2018.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

How this is counted

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).
