Accounting services include professional financial record-keeping, statement preparation, tax compliance, and regulatory filing for businesses. Qualified Tax Professionals handle bookkeeping, GST and TDS compliance, bank reconciliation, and financial reporting under the Companies Act 2013 and Income Tax Act.
Professional accounting services go beyond basic bookkeeping to provide end-to-end financial management for businesses of every size. A qualified finance professional records and classifies transactions, prepares monthly Profit & Loss statements and Balance Sheets, computes GST and TDS liabilities, reconciles bank statements, and assists with filing statutory returns with MCA, the income tax department, and the GST portal. Under Section 128 of the Companies Act 2013, every registered company must maintain proper books of account on an accrual and double-entry basis. Failure to comply attracts fines from ₹50,000 to ₹5,00,000 plus imprisonment up to 1 year. For LLPs, the LLP Act 2008 mandates similar record-keeping requirements. Sole proprietors with turnover above ₹25 lakh must maintain books under Section 44AA of the Income Tax Act. Professional accounting ensures compliance across all three Acts while providing actionable financial insights for business growth.
Accounting in India is governed by the Companies Act 2013 (Sections 128, 129, 133), the Income Tax Act (Section 44AA), and the GST Act 2017 (Section 35). The applicable regulatory body oversees the profession and issues Indian Accounting Standards. All company filings are made through the MCA portal.

1. Every company must maintain books under Section 128 of the Companies Act 2013; penalties range from ₹50,000 to ₹5,00,000. 2. Professional accounting starts at ₹4,999/month covering P&L, Balance Sheet, GST, and TDS. 3. Outsourcing saves 40% to 60% versus hiring in-house (₹25,000 to ₹50,000/month). 4. IncorpX assigns a dedicated certified professional, not a bookkeeper, to every client. 5. Onboarding takes 3 to 5 working days; reports delivered by the 10th of each month.
Based on our experience managing books for 1,200+ businesses, the most common reason companies face penalties is delayed bank reconciliation. Our dedicated finance professional ensures your books stay current every month, not just at year-end. Insider tip from practice: Most businesses wait until March to reconcile accounts and then face a 2 to 3 week rush. Start monthly reconciliation from month one. Our data shows clients who reconcile monthly spend 60% less time on year-end closure and catch GST input credit mismatches within the same return period.
Types of Accounting Services in India
Different businesses need different types of accounting support. Here is a breakdown of the 8 accounting service categories available in India, along with who needs them and the relevant regulations:
Type
What It Covers
Who Needs It
Governing Regulation
Financial Accounting
P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow as per accounting standards
Most businesses need financial accounting + tax accounting as a baseline. Add management accounting once turnover crosses ₹1 crore. IncorpX's Starter plan at ₹4,999 covers financial and tax accounting for up to 100 monthly transactions.
Who Needs Professional Accounting Services?
Every business registered in India has a legal obligation to maintain proper books of account. The specific requirements depend on your entity type, turnover, and applicable Acts. Here is a breakdown by business structure:
IT Act Section 44AA (mandatory if turnover above ₹25 lakh or income above ₹2,50,000)
Bookkeeping + Tax Filing
Starter (₹4,999)
Section 8 Company
Companies Act + 12AB/80G compliance
Financial + Tax + Grant Accounting
Business (₹7,999)
Startups raising seed or Series A funding need investor-ready financials before every round. Investors review 2 to 3 years of audited P&L and Balance Sheet data. Start professional accounting from day one to avoid retrospective corrections that cost 3x more.
What's Included in Our Accounting Services
IncorpX offers 3 accounting tiers designed for businesses at different stages. Every plan includes a dedicated tax professional, not a junior bookkeeper. Here is the full service matrix:
Note: Listed monthly fees are IncorpX professional charges for accounting and compliance assistance. Government fees for MCA filing (AOC-4: ₹200 to ₹600, MGT-7: ₹200 to ₹600) are charged separately at actuals. Zoho Books software licence is included at no additional cost.
Documents Required for Accounting Services
Entity Documents:
PAN Card of the company, LLP, or proprietor (scanned PDF)
CIN/LLPIN Certificate or business registration proof
GST Registration Certificate (download from www.gst.gov.in)
Aadhaar Card of all directors, partners, or proprietor
Financial Documents:
Bank Statements (all business accounts, last 12 months, PDF format)
Previous Year Balance Sheet & P&L (if available from prior accountant)
Create a shared Google Drive or Dropbox folder with sub-folders for each month. Upload invoices and receipts as you receive them. This reduces onboarding time by 2 to 3 days and ensures nothing is missed during year-end accounting.
Missing bank statements or previous financial records can delay onboarding by 3 to 5 additional working days. Ensure all business bank accounts are covered. Our team flags gaps within 1 working day of document review.
How Our Accounting Process Works
Our 6-step onboarding process takes 3 to 5 working days from document submission. Each step is handled by your dedicated tax professional. Total cost starts at ₹4,999 per month.

Step 2: Share Financial Documents
Upload PAN, GST certificate, bank statements, previous financial records, and purchase/sales invoices through our secure document portal. Our team reviews all documents and identifies any gaps within 1 working day.
Portal: Secure upload portal | Time: 1 working day
Step 3: Accounting Software Setup
Your dedicated professional sets up or migrates your books to Zoho Books or Tally with a standardised chart of accounts, GST configuration, and bank feed integration. If you already use Tally, we connect via Tally.NET for remote access.
Software: Zoho Books or Tally Prime | Time: 1 to 2 working days
Step 4: Opening Balance Entry and Verification
Your assigned professional enters opening balances from previous financial records, reconciles bank statements, and verifies all brought-forward figures. Any discrepancies from your prior accountant's records are flagged and resolved before monthly accounting begins.
Time: 1 to 2 working days
Step 5: Monthly Accounting Execution Begins
Regular monthly accounting starts: transaction recording, bank reconciliation, GST computation, TDS calculations, and preparation of Profit & Loss account and Balance Sheet. All reports are delivered by the 10th of each month via email and Zoho Books dashboard.
Your dedicated professional schedules a monthly review call to discuss financial health, tax-saving opportunities, upcoming compliance deadlines, and cash flow insights. Ongoing support is available via WhatsApp and email for queries between review cycles.
Ensure your previous accountant provides a complete trial balance and last-filed ITR before switching. Incomplete data causes reconciliation delays of 3 to 7 additional working days. IncorpX handles all communication with your prior accountant during transition.
3 to 5 working days to onboard. Dedicated professional from day one.

Outsourcing saves 40% to 60% on costs compared to hiring an in-house accountant. You get access to a full professional team with specialisations across financial accounting, tax, and GST compliance. For companies above ₹25 crore turnover with dedicated finance departments, in-house accounting works well. For startups, SMEs, and businesses below that threshold, outsourced accounting delivers better value and expertise.
A growing number of businesses adopt a hybrid model: in-house staff handles day-to-day data entry while outsourced professionals manage compliance, financial statements, and strategic advisory. This combines the best of both approaches at a controlled cost.
Many founders underestimate the hidden cost of in-house accounting. Beyond salary, factor in Tally or Zoho licence (₹10,000 to ₹25,000/year), training on GST/TDS updates (4 to 6 hours quarterly), and the cost of errors from single-person dependency. In our experience, 3 out of 10 new clients come to us after discovering their in-house accountant missed TDS deposit deadlines for 2 or more quarters, resulting in ₹200/day penalty under Section 234E.

The New Income Tax Act 2025 (effective April 2026) replaces "Assessment Year" with "Tax Year," and introduces revised terminology for accounting provisions. E-invoicing is mandatory for businesses with turnover above ₹5 crore. The MCA audit trail mandate requires all companies to maintain digital audit trails in their accounting software. All income tax filings are made through the Income Tax e-Filing portal. The relevant professional body's Accounting Standards (AS 1 to 32) govern financial statement preparation for companies below the Ind AS threshold. For the latest MCA circulars on audit trail and e-filing, refer to the MCA Acts and Rules page. IncorpX stays ahead of these regulatory changes and updates your books proactively.
Each business structure in India has different accounting mandates, filing requirements, and audit thresholds. Here is a detailed entity-wise comparison:

Private Limited Companies and OPCs carry the highest compliance burden because they must comply with the Companies Act, Income Tax Act, and GST Act simultaneously. LLPs have simpler filing requirements: Form 8 and Form 11 replace AOC-4 and MGT-7. Sole proprietors with turnover above ₹25 lakh or income above ₹2,50,000 must maintain books under Section 44AA of the Income Tax Act.
Section 8 companies (non-profits) require special accounting for grants, donations, and 12AB/80G implications. If you operate a private limited company, our Business plan includes support for all mandatory filings including AOC-4, MGT-7, and ITR-6.

Frequently Asked Questions About Accounting Services in India (2026)
Below are answers to the most common questions about professional accounting services in India, covering costs, documents, compliance, and the differences between bookkeeping and full accounting. These answers are based on the Companies Act 2013, Income Tax Act, GST Act 2017, and our experience managing books for 1,200+ businesses.
Accounting services cover financial statement preparation (Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet), bookkeeping, bank reconciliation, GST and TDS computation, tax planning, and audit support. Under Section 128 of the Companies Act 2013, every company must maintain proper books of account. Professional accountants handle these requirements for businesses at fees starting ₹4,999 per month.
Bookkeeping is the daily recording of financial transactions such as sales, purchases, and payments. Accounting goes further to include classification, summarisation, financial statement preparation, tax planning, and analysis. Bookkeeping records data; accounting interprets it. Both together cost ₹4,999 to ₹11,999 per month depending on transaction volume.
Six primary types exist: financial accounting (statements and reporting), tax accounting (ITR, GST, TDS), management accounting (budgeting, MIS reports), cost accounting (product costing), forensic accounting (fraud detection), and cloud accounting (Zoho Books, Tally-based remote services). Most businesses need financial plus tax accounting at minimum.
Financial accounting prepares statutory reports (Balance Sheet, P&L) under Companies Act Section 129 for external stakeholders like investors and regulators. Management accounting produces internal reports such as budgets, variance analysis, and MIS dashboards for business decisions. Financial accounting is mandatory; management accounting is optional but recommended for businesses above ₹1 crore turnover.
Forensic accounting involves investigating financial records for fraud, embezzlement, or disputes. Forensic accountants analyse transaction trails, verify asset valuations, and prepare reports admissible in court. Demand has grown 40% since 2023 in India. Services cost ₹15,000 to ₹50,000 per engagement depending on complexity and scope of investigation.
Ind AS (Indian Accounting Standards) is mandatory for companies with net worth of ₹250 crore or more, aligned with IFRS. Indian GAAP (AS 1 to 32 issued by the relevant professional body) applies to smaller companies. The key difference is fair value measurement under Ind AS versus historical cost under GAAP. Section 133 of the Companies Act governs applicability.
You receive monthly Profit & Loss statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow statement, bank reconciliation report, GST computation summary, TDS liability report, and ageing analysis for receivables and payables. Quarterly reports include MIS dashboards and tax planning summaries. Annual reports include audited financials ready for AOC-4 filing with MCA.
Under Section 128 of the Companies Act 2013, failing to maintain books attracts a fine of ₹50,000 to ₹5,00,000 plus imprisonment up to 1 year for responsible officers. Under Section 271A of the Income Tax Act, the penalty is ₹25,000. GST Section 125 imposes up to ₹25,000 for non-maintenance of records.
The most widely used accounting software includes Tally Prime (dominant for SMEs), Zoho Books (cloud-based, GST-compliant), QuickBooks, Busy Accounting, and SAP for enterprises. IncorpX uses Zoho Books and Tally, both certified for GST e-invoicing. Cloud-based platforms allow real-time access and automatic bank feed integration.
Cloud accounting stores financial data on secure remote servers accessible via browser or mobile app. Software like Zoho Books automatically syncs bank transactions, generates GST-compliant invoices, and produces real-time reports. Data is encrypted with 256-bit SSL. Cloud accounting reduces errors by 30% compared to manual entry and enables real-time professional collaboration.
A qualified finance professional prepares financial statements, coordinates statutory and tax audits, assists with filing ITR and GST returns, advises on tax-saving strategies, and ensures Companies Act compliance. Professionals authorized under Section 44AB of the Income Tax Act are legally required for tax audits when business turnover exceeds ₹1 crore (₹10 crore if cash receipts and payments do not exceed 5% of total) or professional receipts exceed ₹50 lakh.
Cost accounting tracks and analyses production and operational costs per unit, department, or project. It covers material costs, labour costs, and overheads. Manufacturing companies use cost accounting for pricing decisions and profitability analysis. Under the Companies (Cost Records and Audit) Rules 2014, certain industries must maintain cost records and get them audited.
Section 128 of the Companies Act 2013 requires every company to maintain books of account including: journal, ledger, cash book, bank book, invoices, receipts, and financial statements. These must be maintained on accrual basis and double-entry system at the registered office. Books must be preserved for a minimum of 8 financial years.
You need PAN card of the entity, GST registration certificate, Aadhaar of directors/partners, bank statements for the current financial year, previous year financial records (Balance Sheet, P&L, ITR), purchase and sales invoices, expense receipts, and debit/credit notes. Digital scanned copies in PDF format are accepted through our secure portal.
The 6-step process begins with inquiry submission, followed by document upload, Zoho Books or Tally setup (1 to 2 working days), opening balance entry, monthly accounting execution with reports delivered by the 10th of each month, and a strategic review call. Total onboarding takes 3 to 5 working days from document submission.
Onboarding takes 3 to 5 working days from document submission. Day 1 covers document review and professional assignment. Days 2 to 3 cover software setup and bank feed integration. Days 3 to 5 cover opening balance entry and verification. Your first monthly report is delivered by the 10th of the following month after onboarding completes.
Yes. IncorpX works with Tally Prime, Zoho Books, QuickBooks, and Busy Accounting. If you use Tally, our experts access your books remotely via Tally.NET. For Zoho Books, we set up multi-user collaboration. If you have no software, we provide assistance with Zoho Books setup at no extra cost as an authorised Zoho partner.
Year-end accounting (before March 31) includes closing entries, depreciation calculation, inventory valuation, provision for doubtful debts, tax liability computation, and preparation of final Balance Sheet and P&L. We handle filing of AOC-4 (financial statements) and MGT-7 (annual return) with MCA on your behalf. Government fee ranges from ₹200 to ₹600 based on authorised capital.
Transitioning takes 5 to 7 working days. Share your previous accountant's trial balance, financial statements, ITR copies, and bank reconciliation. Our team verifies opening balances and reconciles any discrepancies. We handle communication with your prior accountant for pending data. No gap in compliance coverage during the transition period.
No prior accounting knowledge is needed. Your dedicated professional explains every report in plain language during monthly review calls. We provide a financial dashboard with visual charts for revenue, expenses, and cash flow. You receive WhatsApp and email summaries of key numbers. Our goal is to make financial data accessible to business owners, not just accountants.
Monthly reports are delivered by the 10th of each month via email in PDF format and through your Zoho Books dashboard. Reports include Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, cash flow summary, bank reconciliation, GST liability statement, and TDS computation. Quarterly MIS reports and annual audited financials are delivered on schedule before filing deadlines.
Professional accounting services in India range from ₹4,999 to ₹11,999 per month depending on transaction volume and services included. IncorpX's Starter plan at ₹4,999 covers up to 100 transactions. Business plan at ₹7,999 includes up to 300 transactions with TDS and tax planning. Enterprise plan at ₹11,999 covers 300+ transactions with audit support.
Yes. Even sole proprietorships must maintain books under Section 44AA of the Income Tax Act if turnover exceeds ₹25 lakh or income exceeds ₹2,50,000. Small businesses that skip professional accounting face ₹25,000 penalty under Section 271A, miss GST input credit claims, and lack investor-ready financials. IncorpX's Starter plan at ₹4,999 fits small business budgets.
IncorpX has zero hidden charges. The monthly fee covers all listed services including financial statements, bank reconciliation, GST computation, and TDS calculations. Listed amounts are IncorpX professional charges for accounting assistance. Government fees for MCA filing (₹200 to ₹600 for AOC-4 and MGT-7) are charged separately at actuals. Software licence costs are included in the package if you use our Zoho Books setup.
Yes. Our accounting services include assistance with GSTR-1 filing (outward supplies), GSTR-3B (monthly summary), annual GSTR-9, and GSTR-9C reconciliation for turnover above ₹5 crore. We handle input tax credit matching, reverse charge computation, and e-invoicing for businesses with turnover above ₹5 crore. GST compliance support is included in all pricing tiers.
Yes. IncorpX provides complete audit support including preparation of audit-ready financial statements, schedules, and notes to accounts. We coordinate with your statutory auditor, respond to audit queries, and prepare supporting documents. Tax audit under Section 44AB is required for business turnover above ₹1 crore (₹10 crore if cash receipts and payments do not exceed 5% of total) or professional receipts above ₹50 lakh.
Professionally prepared financials are essential for funding. Investors and banks require audited Balance Sheets, P&L statements, cash flow projections, and MIS reports before approving loans or equity investment. IncorpX provides investor-ready financial packages, due diligence support, and valuation-ready data. Businesses with professional accounting secure funding 2x faster.
Yes. All IncorpX plans include TDS computation and compliance. Monthly TDS is calculated on salaries, rent, professional fees, and contractor payments. We assist with filing TDS returns (Form 24Q, 26Q, 27Q) quarterly. Income tax return filing support (ITR-3 for business, ITR-5 for LLP, ITR-6 for companies) is included in the Business and Enterprise plans.
Yes. Professional accountants provide monthly cash flow statements, receivable ageing reports, and payable schedules that identify collection delays and payment optimisation opportunities. IncorpX clients report an average 20% improvement in cash flow visibility. We set up automated payment reminders and provide quarterly cash flow projections.
IncorpX uses 256-bit SSL encrypted cloud platforms (Zoho Books, Tally.NET) with multi-factor authentication. Data is stored on ISO 27001-certified servers in India. Access is restricted to your assigned professional through role-based permissions. We sign NDAs with all clients. Cloud backups run every 24 hours with 99.9% uptime guarantee.
IncorpX assigns a dedicated tax professional (not just a bookkeeper) to every client. We cover multi-Act compliance (Companies Act + IT Act + GST Act) in a single plan. Our 1,200+ business clients get monthly review calls, WhatsApp support, and investor-ready financial packages. Competitors offer entry-based pricing; IncorpX provides comprehensive expert-led service.
Outsourcing saves 40% to 60% on costs. An in-house accountant costs ₹25,000 to ₹50,000 per month (salary + benefits + software). Outsourced accounting starts at ₹4,999 per month with access to a full professional team, not one individual. Outsourcing eliminates HR overhead, provides multi-Act expertise, and scales with business growth without rehiring.
A bookkeeper records daily transactions (₹8,000 to ₹15,000 per month for hiring). An accountant analyses, interprets, and prepares financial statements and handles tax compliance. A qualified professional authorized under applicable laws can additionally conduct statutory audits and certify tax returns. For complete compliance, businesses need accounting services, not just bookkeeping.
EbizFiling charges ₹3,499 to ₹9,999 per month with entry-based pricing (100 to 700 entries). LegalRaasta requires a call for a quote. IncorpX charges ₹4,999 to ₹11,999 with dedicated professional assignment and multi-Act compliance. Key differentiators: IncorpX includes monthly review calls, investor-ready packages, and WhatsApp support across all plans.
Software alone (Tally at ₹18,000/year, Zoho Books at ₹9,999/year) handles data entry and basic reports but cannot prepare compliant financial statements, file returns, or provide tax planning. Professional accountants use the same software plus apply regulatory knowledge. For Companies Act and GST compliance, an expert-led accounting service is legally safer.
The Income Tax Act 2025 (effective April 2026) replaces the 1961 Act with updated terminology. Assessment Year becomes Tax Year. Form numbers and section references change across all ITR filings. IncorpX updates all accounting processes, report templates, and compliance calendars to reflect these changes before the April 2026 effective date.
The MCA audit trail mandate requires all companies to record an edit log in their accounting software for every transaction entry. This feature must be enabled in Zoho Books or Tally from the start of the financial year. Disabling the audit trail attracts penalties during statutory audit. IncorpX configures this as part of onboarding.
Yes. Freelancers in specified professions must maintain prescribed books under Section 44AA of the Income Tax Act if gross receipts exceed ₹1,50,000; for others, the threshold is ₹25 lakh turnover or ₹2,50,000 income. GST registration is mandatory above ₹20 lakh turnover (₹10 lakh for special category states). IncorpX's Starter plan at ₹4,999 per month covers freelancer accounting, GST filing, and ITR preparation. Over 200 freelancers use our services.
