Outsourcing in India — Your Back Office, Handled.

CA-managed business process outsourcing in India — bookkeeping and accounting outsourcing, payroll processing, GST and TDS compliance, MCA annual filings, and virtual CFO services for businesses of all sizes.

Outsourcing non-core business functions — accounting, payroll, tax compliance, and secretarial work — to a qualified CA firm in India allows businesses to access professional-grade financial management without the cost and complexity of building in-house finance and compliance teams. This is particularly valuable for foreign companies entering India, startups scaling quickly, and SMEs whose founders lack the bandwidth to manage India's dense compliance calendar while also running the business.

India's compliance landscape is demanding: monthly GST returns, quarterly TDS returns, annual MCA filings, PF and ESIC monthly remittances, professional tax, advance tax, and income tax returns. Each of these has its own due date, its own form, and its own penalty for late filing. Managing this in-house requires dedicated, trained staff. Outsourcing to a CA firm converts a fixed compliance headcount cost into a variable, scalable service cost — and ensures the work is done by professionals who specialise in exactly these obligations.

We provide end-to-end finance and compliance outsourcing — bookkeeping in accounting software of your choice (Tally, Zoho Books, QuickBooks), monthly MIS reporting, GST return preparation and filing, TDS computation and returns, payroll processing, PF and ESIC remittances, MCA annual compliance, and CA-certified certificates where required. All work is managed by our qualified CA team and delivered against agreed SLAs — with no dependency on individual staff members.

Frequently Asked Questions

Accounting and bookkeeping, GST return filing, TDS compliance, payroll processing, PF and ESIC management, MCA annual compliance, income tax return filing, and management reporting can all be outsourced to a CA firm. Some firms also provide virtual CFO services covering budgeting, investor reporting, and financial strategy.

Foreign companies with Indian subsidiaries face India's compliance calendar without a local finance team in the early stages. Monthly GST returns, quarterly TDS filings, annual MCA submissions, PF remittances, and income tax returns all have independent due dates and penalties. Outsourcing to a CA firm ensures these are handled professionally without the parent company needing to build an India finance team from scratch.

We work with Tally Prime, Zoho Books, QuickBooks, and other accounting platforms based on client preference. For clients who do not have a preference, we recommend the most appropriate software for their transaction volume and reporting requirements.

All outsourced engagements are governed by a non-disclosure agreement. Financial data is accessed only by the CA team members assigned to the engagement, stored in secure systems, and never shared with third parties. As a CA firm, we are also bound by the ICAI Code of Ethics on client confidentiality.

Monthly MIS typically includes a P&L statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, accounts receivable and payable ageing, budget vs actuals comparison, and key operational metrics (revenue by segment, gross margin, etc.). The format and content is agreed at the start of the engagement based on what the management team and board need.

Yes. Outsourcing is modular. A business may choose to handle payroll internally but outsource GST filing and MCA compliance. Alternatively, a company may outsource bookkeeping but retain its own CFO for strategic decisions. We structure the engagement around what actually needs to be outsourced based on your current capacity and gaps.
