Questions, asked often AI-Driven

Most clients ask
one of these.

Replies from the partner who would handle your file — brief, candid, and updated when the answer changes.

I. How does an engagement begin?

A 20-minute call first — to understand your books, your timing, and whether we're the right fit. If we both agree, a written proposal lands in your inbox within forty-eight hours: scope, deliverables, fee, and the partner who will own your file.

Nothing is billed until the engagement letter is signed. Until then, the conversation costs you nothing.

II. Who actually handles my work — a partner or an associate?

A partner, named in the engagement letter, owns your file. Associates support — they prepare returns, run reconciliations, draft schedules — but the partner reviews and signs every deliverable before it leaves the office.

If your matter is a statutory audit, the engagement partner also signs the audit report. Nothing material is delegated downstream and forgotten.

III. What does "AI-driven" actually mean here?

AI-AssistedWe use automated tools for the mechanical work: 26AS / AIS / TIS reconciliation, vendor-level matching, OCR on invoices, anomaly flagging during audit, and first-pass drafts for routine notice responses.

Every output is partner-reviewed before it reaches you or the department. The technology handles the patterns; the judgment is ours. We're explicit about which services are AI-assisted and which aren't — see Services.

IV. What's a typical turnaround time?

ITR: three to five business days once your records are clean. GST: filed before the statutory due date, every cycle, with reconciliation noted in the working paper. Statutory audit: a board-ready report within three weeks of receiving the trial balance.

We commit to a date in the engagement letter, not after the work starts. If the date slips, we say so before the deadline — never after.

V. We already have a CA. Can you take over mid-year?

Yes — and we do this often. We handle the handover with your prior advisor (with your written permission), complete KYC, reconcile the opening position, and you sign off on the position before we start fresh. Typically thirty days end-to-end.

No interruption to your filings. No gap in the audit trail. We don't speak ill of the previous CA — we just pick up cleanly.

VI. We have entities in multiple countries. Can you handle all of them?

Yes. India, US, UK, Canada, Australia — we have partners in each practice with local credentials and local filing infrastructure. One engagement letter can cover a group across multiple jurisdictions, with a single point of contact for you.

Where we don't operate locally (mainland Europe, the Gulf, Singapore), we work with vetted correspondents — and we'll be candid on the first call about where the line is.

VII. What if our matter is outside your usual scope?

Tell us on the first call. If it's something we don't do well — registered valuation, litigation counsel, loss assessment, forensic investigation — we'll say so, and point you to someone who handles it properly.

We'd rather decline than disappoint. The boutique posture only works if we stay disciplined about what we accept.
