Tally Prime, Zoho Books and QuickBooks. Our accountants include QuickBooks-certified ProAdvisors. We work in your file, so you keep ownership of your data.
Do you take over books mid-year?
Yes. If earlier months are incomplete we quote a one-time clean-up, priced per financial year.

Yes, including US-listed shares, foreign tax credit and the foreign assets schedule. These are covered in the Investor plan at ₹14,999.
Can NRIs claim back TDS deducted in India?
Yes. TDS on NRI income is often deducted at a higher rate than the actual tax. Filing a return claims the excess as a refund.

Up to USD 1 million per financial year, after applicable taxes are paid.

Usually 7 to 15 working days after documents are complete, depending on name approval and government processing.
Are government fees included?
No. Government fees and stamp duty vary by state and capital, and are charged at actuals.
What should I do first when I get a tax notice?

Can you take a case to the High Court?
Yes, through our legal experts, including a High Court advocate. Fees are quoted after a case review.
