Bookkeeping and accounting support
Day-to-day bookkeeping, financial statements, payroll processing and TDS return filing.
Most compliance problems start in the books. If sales, purchases and bank movements are recorded late or inconsistently, every return filed from them takes longer and carries more risk of a mismatch.
We maintain books for proprietors, firms and companies — either as the whole accounting function, or alongside an in-house team that handles day-to-day entry while we review and close each period.
How the work is organised
You share records at an agreed frequency — monthly for most businesses, more often where volumes justify it. We record them, reconcile the bank and the major ledgers, and tell you what is missing rather than guessing at it.
At the end of each period you receive a closed set of books and the statements drawn from them, so the position you are looking at is one you can rely on for a decision.
Payroll and TDS
Where we run payroll, we compute salaries and the deductions applicable to them, prepare the payment register, and handle the TDS deposits and quarterly returns that follow. Form 16 is issued to employees at the end of the year.
TDS applies well beyond salaries — to contractor payments, professional fees, rent and commission among others. We identify which of your payments attract deduction and at what rate.

Frequently asked questions
My books are two years behind. Can that be fixed?
Usually, yes, provided the underlying records still exist — bank statements, purchase bills and sales records. We start by assessing what is available and what is missing, and set out what it will take to bring the books current before doing the work.
Where documents are genuinely unavailable, we will tell you what can be reconstructed and what cannot, rather than filling gaps with assumptions.
Do I have to change my accounting software to work with you?
No. We work in Tally and in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, and can also work from spreadsheets or scanned records if that is how your records currently arrive.
If we think a change would genuinely help, we will explain why — but it is not a condition of working together.
On which payments do I have to deduct TDS?
Tax deduction at source applies to a range of payments — salaries, contractor payments, professional fees, rent, commission and interest among them — each with its own rate and threshold.
Failing to deduct can result in part of the expense being disallowed when computing taxable income, which usually costs considerably more than the deduction itself. We review your payment types and tell you which attract deduction and at what rate.
