Chartered accountancy
Compliance work,
done unremarkably well.
Audit, tax and statutory filing for owner-managed businesses and the people behind them, anywhere in India. The same team every year, a fixed calendar, and working papers that answer the question before it is asked.
Scope of work
Seven mandates, one engagement letter.
Most clients take the whole set; some take one. Each is scoped separately, so you can see what you are asking us to carry rather than reading one line that covers everything.
Statements that survive a second reading
Statutory audit under the Companies Act, tax audit under section 44AB, and internal audit for businesses that have outgrown a single bookkeeper. We plan fieldwork in the quarter before the deadline rather than the week after it.
- Statutory audit for companies and LLPs
- Tax audit under section 44AB
- Internal & management audit
- Stock and receivables verification
- Bank and concurrent audit
- Trust, society and section 8 audit
Positions we are willing to defend
Return filing is the easy half. The work that matters happens before the year closes, and again when a notice arrives eighteen months later and nobody on either side of the desk needs to panic about it.
- Income-tax filing, corporate and personal
- Tax planning, advance tax and withholding advisory
- Scrutiny assessments and faceless proceedings
- Appeals before CIT(A) and tribunal support
- Capital gains, ESOP and perquisite computation
- Residential status and DTAA relief
Credit that actually reaches your books
Monthly discipline beats an annual clean-up. We reconcile 2B against purchase records every cycle, so mismatched credit is caught while the supplier still takes your call.
- Registration, amendment and cancellation
- GSTR-1, 3B and annual GSTR-9 / 9C
- Input credit reconciliation with 2A / 2B
- Refunds on exports, inverted duty and excess cash
- Departmental audit and notice replies
- E-invoicing and e-way bill systems
The registers nobody remembers until they matter
Incorporation through to annual filing, kept current so that due diligence, a bank facility or an investor's data room does not turn into a three-week archaeology project.
- Private limited, LLP and OPC incorporation
- Annual ROC filing: AOC-4 and MGT-7
- Board and shareholder minutes, statutory registers
- Share allotment, transfer and capital changes
- Director KYC, DIN and charge filings
- FEMA reporting: FC-GPR and FLA returns
Registration, and the filings that follow it
Registration and continuing compliance under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, for agents and promoters. We diarise the quarterly updates and renewal dates when we file, so a listing does not get held up by a lapsed certificate.
- RERA agent registration and renewal
- Project registration for promoters
- Quarterly project updates and disclosures
- Form 3, the chartered accountant's certificate
- Escrow and withdrawal certification
- Extension, correction and deregistration filings
Numbers you can run the business on
For businesses between a bookkeeper and a full finance function: monthly closing, a management pack that goes beyond a P&L, and someone to sit on the call when the bank asks difficult questions.
- Book-keeping and ledger maintenance
- Bank reconciliation and monthly closing
- MIS, financial reporting and management packs
- Budgeting, forecasting and cash-flow control
- Payroll processing with PF, ESI and professional tax
- Monthly and quarterly reporting
- Banking, facility and lender liaison
Certificates that hold up
The certificates and diligence work that sit at the edge of a transaction, done to a standard the counterparty's adviser accepts the first time.
- Net-worth and turnover certificates
- 15CA / 15CB for foreign remittance
- Financial and tax due diligence
- Business valuation support
- Project reports for lenders
- Registration support for MSME, IEC and 12A/80G
