Corporation’s papers given inflated appearance (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tumid

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'inflated appearance' is the definition.
'tumid' can be an answer for 'inflated' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'appearance' bit.

'corporation's papers given' is the wordplay.
'corporation' becomes 'tum' ('corporation' can humorously mean belly fat).
'papers' becomes 'ID' (short for identification papers).
'given' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'tum'+'id'='TUMID'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tumid that I've seen before include "Bloated" , "Abnormally swollen" , "Bulging" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
