Any notice, query or document you send gets a substantive reply — or a clear timeline for one — within forty‑eight working hours. Not an acknowledgement, an answer.
HomeWhy Us
Choosing a CA is a ten‑year decision. Ask harder questions.
Anyone can file a return. What separates firms is what happens in the eighteen months afterwards — when a notice arrives, when a bank asks for numbers, when a partner wants out. Here is how we handle those.
Our commitments
Six things you can hold us to.
These are written into our engagement letters, not just onto a website.
Access to the partner
Every engagement has a named associate and direct access to the partner who signs it. You will not be handed between people who have not read your file.
No surprise invoices
Fees are agreed in writing before work starts. Anything outside the agreed scope is quoted and approved by you before we begin it.
Confidentiality by default
Records are held on access‑controlled storage, shared only with the team on your engagement, and never used for anything other than your work.
Your records stay yours
If you ever leave, your working papers, computations and filings are handed over in a usable form. We do not hold documents hostage over fees.
We will say no
If a position is not defensible or a matter is outside our competence, we decline it and tell you why — and where possible, point you to someone better placed.
The first thirty days
What actually happens after you sign.
Switching accountants feels risky, so we front‑load the reassurance. The first month is diagnostic, and you get something in writing at the end of it whether or not you continue.
- Days 1–7: handover from your previous advisor, access to portals, and a document checklist.
- Days 8–18: review of the last two years — returns, books, notices, registers and registrations.
- Days 19–25: a written health report: what is clean, what is exposed, what is missing, ranked by risk.
- Days 26–30: the compliance calendar is built, roles are assigned and the routine begins.
The difference
Filing versus advising.
Both cost money. Only one of them changes what your business is worth in five years.
A filing relationship
- You are contacted when a deadline is close.
- Books are seen once a year, at audit.
- Questions get answered; nothing is raised proactively.
- A notice triggers a scramble for documents.
- Tax planning happens in March.
An advisory relationship
- Deadlines are tracked and flagged before they matter.
- Books are reviewed monthly and explained.
- Risks and opportunities are raised by us, unprompted.
- A notice is answered from working papers already on file.
- Tax positions are planned in April and reviewed quarterly.
Questions
Everything clients ask first.
Yes. The firm operates from Kolkata with associate offices at Malda and Khagaria, and a large part of our work is handled digitally — documents move over secure links, reviews happen over call or video. Physical presence is arranged wherever a matter genuinely needs it.
No, and that is usually the cheapest stage to get it right. Early-stage engagements are scoped small — incorporation, a clean chart of accounts, GST and TDS discipline, and a monthly closing routine. The Cloud CFO retainer then scales with you instead of being retro-fitted after the mess.
By scope, not by surprise. After the first review we send a written proposal listing exactly what is included, what is billed separately, and the annual compliance calendar it covers. Retainers are monthly or quarterly; one-time assignments are quoted as a fixed fee.
Often nothing about your team. We frequently sit above an in-house accountant — reviewing their work, closing the books to a standard, and taking responsibility for the statutory and advisory layer. It is a review-and-supervise arrangement, not a replacement.
Yes. Bring the notice, the return it relates to and whatever records exist. We assess the exposure honestly before quoting, and we will tell you plainly if the position is weak rather than promising an outcome we cannot deliver.
Records are kept on access-controlled storage, shared only with the team members on your engagement, and retained for the statutory period. We do not use client data for anything other than the engagement itself.
Yes, and it is more common than a clean 1 April start. We take the trial balance as at the handover date, review what was filed before it, and note in writing anything from the earlier period that we could not verify. That way the boundary of our responsibility is clear to everyone, including you.
Yes. We prepare project reports, CMA data and the supporting statements banks ask for, and we sit in on the credit discussion where that helps. What we do not do is inflate projections to get a sanction — a facility approved on numbers you cannot meet becomes a much bigger problem at renewal.
