Bookkeeping

Your Books, Current — Every Month, Without Managing an Accountant — Bookkeeping is the foundation. Before any GST return can be filed. Before a TDS deposit can be reconciled. Before a loan application can show real numbers. The books have to be correct first. Most small businesses find out the hard way. An unsorted pile of receipts appears at year-end. A bank statement does not match the filed returns. An auditor asks for a transaction that cannot be found. FinTax24's monthly bookkeeping keeps that pile from building up.

The engagement runs on a monthly cycle. Every month the process is the same. Post sales, purchases, expenses and bank entries. Reconcile every account. Deliver the P&L, balance sheet and GST-sales dashboard by the fifth working day. The books are kept on Tally Prime, QuickBooks Online or Zoho Books. Pick whichever your team or auditor already uses. We do not move you to a new software platform.

What Changes When Your Books Are Actually Current

A Surat textile firm was reconciling books once a year. Six months into FinTax24's monthly cadence, they found that a fabric supplier had been overbilling by ₹1.2 lakh across three invoices. The error showed up in the payable aging report in month two. It was caught in month three. It was resolved before the next payment run. That is what monthly reconciliation does. It makes errors small because they are found quickly.

An Ahmedabad e-commerce seller carried GST input tax credit across six marketplace accounts. They found the same thing in GSTR-2B reconciliation. Mismatched invoices worth ₹83,000 appeared. They caught it before the annual return closed the claiming window.

For businesses preparing for a loan, a tax audit, or an investor conversation, audit-ready books are not a luxury. Section 44AB of the Income-tax Act requires a tax audit for proprietors with turnover above ₹10 lakh and companies above ₹1 crore. The audit cannot start if the books are not closed. FinTax24 maintains the 44AA working papers and the audit schedules all year. When the auditor arrives, the trial balance, ledgers and supporting vouchers are already organised.

Dedicated Accountant, Not a Shared Inbox

Every engagement assigns a named qualified accountant to your entity. This is not a shared queue where the person answering your WhatsApp does not know your business. You get direct access to that accountant during business hours. A reviewer checks the work before it is delivered. If your statutory auditor asks a question about a specific entry, the accountant who made that entry is available to answer it. The same continuity applies to the year-end close. The accountant who has posted every month closes the year. They are not someone handed a file in March with no context.

The monthly fee covers all entries, bank reconciliation, GST-sales reconciliation, MIS delivery and the year-end close. TDS return filing, payroll runs, and ROC or GST annual returns are separate retainers. The accountant will flag when any of those are approaching their due date so nothing is missed.
