Frequently Asked Questions
What is assurance and risk advisory?
Assurance services provide independent verification that financial or operational information is reliable. Risk advisory involves identifying, assessing, and mitigating business risks — including compliance, financial, operational, and strategic risks.
What is an internal control review and do you provide one?
Yes. An internal control review assesses the design and effectiveness of controls in your financial and operational processes, reducing the risk of errors, fraud, or non-compliance. We provide a management letter with improvement recommendations.
What risk assessment frameworks do you use?
We use internationally recognised frameworks including COSO, ISO 31000, and RBI/SEBI guidelines where applicable. For listed companies, we align with ICAI guidance notes and SEBI LODR requirements.
Do you assist with Ind AS transition and accounting advisory?
Yes. We assist companies transitioning from IGAAP to Ind AS, help with accounting policy selection, first-time adoption adjustments, and disclosure requirements under Ind AS.
Can you support us during an external audit?
Yes. We provide pre-audit readiness assessments, help organise documentation, and provide advisory support during statutory audit queries — ensuring a smooth and efficient audit process.
