How we work
- Ethics, independence and confidentiality. We follow the Chartered Accountants Act, 1949 and the Code of Ethics issued by ICAI. Before accepting an engagement, we consider independence and any conflict of interest. We do not provide an audit client with any service prohibited by section 144 of the Companies Act, 2013. Client information is used only for the engagement and is not disclosed without the client's consent, unless the law or a professional duty requires it.
- Agreed terms. The scope, the respective responsibilities, the reporting and the fees are agreed in writing before work begins, as SA 210 requires for audits.
- Planned, documented and reviewed work. Audits are conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by ICAI: planned, supported by sufficient appropriate evidence, documented as SA 230 requires, and reviewed before the report is signed. Other engagements follow the applicable Standards on Review Engagements, Assurance Engagements and Related Services, and certificates follow ICAI's Guidance Note on Reports or Certificates for Special Purposes. The firm's system of quality control follows SQC 1, and every report and certificate we sign carries a UDIN.
- Clear communication. We explain findings and positions in writing and in plain language, with the law and the facts behind them. In audits, we communicate with those charged with governance as SA 260 and SA 265 require.
- Technology with control. We use current tools for accounting, data analysis and filing, with review controls at every stage. How an engagement runs, step by step.
Our journey
We began with audit and taxation, the two disciplines where accuracy and independence matter most. Over time the questions brought to the firm widened: how to report under Ind AS, how to defend a tax order, how to answer a lender's sustainability questionnaire, how to use AI without losing control.
