What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an opportunity to support organizational compliance and financial excellence through analytical rigor and regulatory knowledge.

At Nasir Javaid Maqsood Imran Chartered Accountant, I assist with external audits and bookkeeping for clients in sectors including NGOs, manufacturing, government, and telecom. My audit work follows International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and applicable financial reporting frameworks.

I prepare and file Income Tax Returns, Sales Tax Returns, and Withholding Tax Statements through the FBR portal. I also draft responses to FBR notices and assessments and coordinate with tax authorities on tax matters.

I’m a CA finalist at the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan, where I passed the Certificate in Accounting and Finance (CAF) in April 2024. My experience also includes annual bookkeeping and participating in a Provident Fund audit.
