What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote-first roles where I can manage audit, accounts, and compliance for multiple clients independently, deliver to deadline, and use process automation and advanced Excel to improve close, reporting, and tax outcomes.

I’m a Qualified Chartered Accountant (ICAI, 2022) with 3.5+ years of post-qualification experience (7+ years total, including a three-year ICAI articleship). My work spans financial reporting, accounting, taxation, and audit across globally regulated and public-practice environments.

I own end-to-end month-, quarter-, and year-end close, preparing Ind AS / GAAP financial statements, schedules, and management accounts. I also drive MIS and board-level reporting through variance analysis, budgeting, forecasting, and cash-flow forecasting, with a focus on accuracy and actionable insights.

In audit and compliance, I handle statutory and internal audits, evaluate internal financial controls (IFC/ICFR), and support audit readiness. I lead direct and indirect tax compliance end-to-end—GST (GSTR-1 / 3B / ITC), TDS, Income Tax, and notice responses—while applying process automation and advanced Excel to deliver independently across multiple clients in a fully remote setup.
