What accounting and assurance services cover
Every other compliance obligation reads from the same source: your books. A GST return, an income tax return, an ROC filing, a bank loan application and a due diligence exercise all draw on the same underlying records, and if those records are incomplete or inconsistent, every downstream filing inherits the problem. Our accounting and assurance work exists to make that base layer reliable.
Accounting and bookkeeping covers day-to-day recording of sales, purchases, expenses and receipts, bank and cash reconciliation, accounts receivable and payable ledgers, inventory and stock records, fixed asset registers with depreciation schedules under both the Companies Act and the Income-tax Act, payroll processing with TDS and statutory deductions, and periodic management reports — profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow — so you can see the position without waiting for year end.
Assurance covers statutory audit of companies under the Companies Act, tax audit under section 44AB where turnover or professional receipts cross the prescribed thresholds, internal audit and internal control review, stock and fixed asset verification, audit of trusts and societies for exemption purposes, and certification work — net worth certificates, turnover certificates and similar attestations that banks and government departments require.
Who needs these services
- Small and medium businesses in Delhi without an in-house accountant, or with a data-entry operator who records transactions but does not reconcile them.
- Companies, for whom statutory audit is mandatory every year regardless of turnover or profitability.
- Businesses and professionals crossing the section 44AB thresholds, for whom tax audit becomes compulsory and the report must be filed before the return.
- Businesses applying for credit, where banks want audited or at least properly prepared financial statements before sanctioning a facility.
- Growing firms with control gaps — cash handled without segregation of duties, purchases made without approval, stock unreconciled — where internal audit pays for itself.
- Trusts and NGOs that must have accounts audited to retain exemption, as covered on our trust and 12A/80G registration page.
- Businesses whose books do not agree with their GST returns — a mismatch that reliably attracts departmental attention.
Our accounting process
- Review of current records. We examine what exists — software, spreadsheets, or a shoebox of vouchers — and identify what is missing before quoting.
- Chart of accounts and setup. A ledger structure is designed around your business so that GST classification, TDS categories and management reporting all flow from the same entries without rework.
- Regular recording. Transactions are recorded on an agreed cycle — weekly, fortnightly or monthly — from bank statements, sales and purchase invoices and expense vouchers you share digitally or drop at the office.
- Reconciliation. Bank balances, GST returns, TDS deducted and deposited, and debtor and creditor balances are reconciled every period. This is the step most commonly skipped elsewhere, and the one that prevents year-end surprises.
- Periodic reporting. You receive a profit and loss statement, balance sheet and key ratios at agreed intervals, with a short note on anything unusual.
- Year-end close and audit. Closing entries, provisions and depreciation are posted, financial statements prepared in the required format, and the audit — statutory, tax or both — completed and filed.

- Previous year's financial statements, audit report and tax return
Why choose us for accounting and audit in Rohini
Bookkeeping is widely available cheaply, and cheap bookkeeping is usually data entry without reconciliation — entries recorded but never checked against the bank, the GST return or the TDS ledger. The gap surfaces at year end, when the audit becomes an archaeology exercise and the fee for fixing a year of unreconciled records exceeds what proper monthly work would have cost.
We reconcile every period. Books are matched to bank statements, to GST returns filed, and to TDS deposited, so the annual accounts are a summary of work already done rather than a reconstruction. It also means that when your income tax return and GST filings are prepared, the turnover figures agree across all three — which is precisely what departmental systems now cross-check.
Assurance work is performed to professional standards, with independence maintained. Where we act as statutory auditor we do not also maintain the books, because that would compromise the independence the audit depends on; in those cases we scope the engagement accordingly and say so plainly at the outset.
Our fees are transparent and quoted upfront based on the scope of work, with no hidden charges — monthly bookkeeping and annual audit are quoted separately, and the bookkeeping fee is based on transaction volume rather than a vague estimate. Newly incorporated companies from our company registration service typically take up bookkeeping from month one. See all our services.
Frequently asked questions about accounting and audit
Is audit compulsory for my business?
Statutory audit under the Companies Act is compulsory for every company, irrespective of turnover or whether it traded at all during the year. Tax audit under section 44AB applies to businesses and professionals once turnover or gross receipts cross the prescribed thresholds, which vary depending on the proportion of digital transactions and whether presumptive taxation is being used. We assess your position and tell you which applies.
Can you take over books that are behind or in poor shape?
Yes. This is a common engagement. We start with a review to establish what exists and what is missing, quote the catch-up work separately from the ongoing retainer, and then bring the records up to date period by period with reconciliations, so that the position at each date is verifiable rather than assumed.
Which accounting software do you work with?
We work with the common Indian accounting packages as well as spreadsheet-based records for smaller entities. If you already use a system, we work within it so your team is not forced to relearn anything. If you are starting fresh, we recommend an option that matches your transaction volume and GST reporting needs rather than the most expensive one.
What is the difference between statutory audit and internal audit?
Statutory audit is an external, legally mandated examination resulting in an opinion on whether the financial statements give a true and fair view; it is addressed to shareholders and regulators. Internal audit is voluntary for most entities and is addressed to management — it examines processes and controls to find weaknesses, fraud risk and inefficiency, and reports on how to fix them.
Can you provide bookkeeping remotely?
Yes. We serve clients across India through secure digital document exchange, video consultations, and online compliance filing. Invoices and statements are shared digitally, books are maintained by us, and reports are delivered by email — a model that works equally well for a Rohini client and one in another state.
My books do not match my GST returns. Can that be fixed?
Usually yes, and it should be fixed before the difference is picked up in scrutiny. We reconcile the two, identify whether the cause is unrecorded sales, timing differences, credit notes or classification errors, correct the books, and where necessary advise on rectifying the returns themselves.
Books to clean up, or an audit to complete?
Tell us the entity type, roughly how many transactions a month, and how far behind the records are. We will come back with scope and an upfront fee. Book a consultation or call +91 97173 55259.
Get the books right and everything else follows
Reconciled records mean returns that agree, audits that close on time, and no unpleasant discoveries in March.
