Everything your auditor needs, ready before they ask

Most of an audit cycle is not the audit. It is the weeks beforehand: chasing ledgers, reconciling the GST returns against the books, explaining a suspense account nobody has looked at since March, and rebuilding the fixed asset register from invoices.

We do that work, so the auditor receives a clean, reconciled, fully documented set and your team is not answering queries at eleven at night.

What we prepare

Books finalised for audit

Ledgers closed, balances agreed and the trial balance tied out before the auditor opens it.

GST-to-books reconciliation

Turnover and input credit reconciled between GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-2B and the books, with differences explained line by line.

TDS reconciliation

Form 26AS and the TDS returns agreed to the expense ledgers, with short-deduction exposure flagged early.

Form 3CD working papers

The clause-by-clause schedules the auditor needs, assembled and cross-referenced to source documents.

Fixed asset register

Additions, disposals and depreciation rebuilt and agreed, including the block-of-assets working under the Income Tax Act.

Stock and inventory records

Valuation working, movement records and the physical verification file put in order.

Around the audit

Query response

We answer the auditor's queries directly, so they do not land on your finance team.

Prior-year follow-through

Last year's audit observations tracked to closure rather than repeated.

Who needs a tax audit

Turnover thresholds

  • Business turnover above ₹1 crore, or ₹10 crore where cash receipts and payments are within 5%
  • Professional receipts above ₹50 lakh
  • Presumptive taxation cases declaring below the deemed rate
  • Thresholds move — we confirm your position before the year closes, not after

Why it slips

  • The deadline is fixed and the penalty under s.271B is real
  • Reconciliations left to the last month rarely close cleanly
  • Auditors cannot sign what has not been documented
  • A clean file costs less in audit fees than a messy one
