What we do
Six practices. Where a service is one the Institute reserves to Chartered Accountants, the detail sits on its own page and opens when you ask for it.
01 / 06
Audit & Assurance
Audit and assurance work is carried out under the statute that requires it — the Companies Act, 2013 for a statutory audit, section 63 of the Income-tax Act, 2025 for a tax audit, section 138 of the Companies Act for internal audit where it applies, and the relevant state or central legislation for trusts, societies and section 8 companies.

02 / 06
Direct Tax
Direct tax work runs on two tracks: the compliance calendar — advance tax, TDS returns, the income-tax return, the tax audit report where applicable — and the positions taken on transactions, which are cheaper to get right before the transaction than to defend after it.
Corporate and business income-tax advisory and return filing
02Individual, HUF and NRI income-tax returns
03TDS and TCS compliance
Quarterly statements, the salary and non-salary deduction certificates, and collection at source.

03 / 06
GST & Indirect Tax
GST compliance is monthly, and most of the difficulty is in reconciliation — what the books show, what GSTR-1 reported, what GSTR-2B allows, and what GSTR-3B claimed. We run those reconciliations as part of the monthly cycle rather than discovering the gaps at the annual return.

08Customs and Foreign Trade Policy support

04 / 06
International Taxation
Cross-border work turns on a small number of questions asked in the right order: is the income taxable in India at all, does a treaty reduce or remove that liability, what has to be withheld before the remittance leaves, and what has to be reported to the Reserve Bank of India afterwards.
Cross-border transaction advisory and DTAA analysis

05 / 06
Business Consulting
Most of the businesses we work with do not need a full-time finance team; they need the function to be reliable. That is what this practice does — books that close on time, payroll that runs, statutory dues paid before they are due, and management numbers you can make a decision on.
