WHAT CHANGES THE SCOPE
Complexity should be identified before the work begins.
Entity and period
Companies, LLPs, firms, proprietors and NGOs carry different reporting and approval requirements.
Record readiness
Structured ledgers and reconciliations require a different effort from incomplete bank, invoice and portal records.
Transaction complexity
Multiple states, related parties, imports, exports, payroll and unusual contracts add review points.
Purpose of output
Routine filing, audit, funding, banking, board reporting and notice response require different levels of evidence.
WHY REGISCORP
One organised route from eligibility to operations.
Requirement-first review
We begin with the entity, transaction volume, filing history and management objective before defining the scope.
Connected records
Books, GST, TDS, income tax and corporate filings are reviewed as connected records rather than isolated portal tasks.
Visible deliverables
The written scope identifies work, dependencies, exclusions, professional fees and expected review points.
One accountable desk
A coordinated team keeps information requests, reconciliations, approvals and next actions organised.
DOCUMENT READINESS
Build the accounting and direct tax file around source evidence.
A tailored checklist is issued after the entity, period, systems and intended deliverable are confirmed.Request a tailored checklist- Entity, PAN, TAN, GST and bank details
- Sales, purchase, expense, payroll and banking records
- Prior financial statements, returns and assessment information
- Loan, investment, fixed-asset and related-party records

Map entities, periods, systems, filings and current record gaps.
Scope and migration
Agree deliverables, cut-off dates, responsibilities and opening balances.
Reconciliation and reporting
Maintain or reconstruct records and resolve identified exceptions.
Approval and next cycle
Share outputs, obtain management approval and carry open items into the next calendar.
INDICATIVE TIMELINE
Understand the stages before completion.
- 01
Initial assessment
Usually one to three working days after core records are available.
- 02
Onboarding
Typically three to seven working days depending on systems and opening balances.
- 03
Recurring cycle
Monthly or quarterly delivery dates are agreed around information cut-offs.
- 04
Annual completion
Tax and statutory work follows the applicable due dates and approval dependencies.
COMMON MISTAKES
Avoid preventable delays, rework and scope gaps.
Choosing isolated filings
Returns prepared without reliable books can create inconsistent financial positions.
Ignoring opening balances
Unverified carried-forward balances can distort every later report.
Mixing personal and business spend
Unclear transactions increase classification and evidence risk.
Waiting for year end
A full-year reconstruction compresses review into the highest-pressure period.
No approval trail
Material estimates and adjustments should be understood and approved by management.
Treating MIS as compliance
Management reports and statutory financial statements serve different purposes.
RISK CONTROL
Financial outputs are only as reliable as the records and representations supporting them.
Professional preparation and review improve consistency, but cannot replace missing evidence, management judgement, statutory authority decisions or an audit where one is legally required.- Incomplete evidenceMissing invoices, contracts or bank records can limit the reliability of outputs.
- Late filingsDelayed data can lead to interest, fees, missed corrections or compressed review.
- Cross-return differencesBooks, GST, TDS, payroll and income-tax records may conflict if maintained separately.
- Management estimatesProvisions and judgements remain management responsibilities even when professionally supported.
PRACTICAL ANSWERS
Accounting and Direct Tax frequently asked questions
These answers are general information. Tax, accounting and filing treatment depends on the entity, period, transaction facts, records and law in force.Ask an expert question01Can RegisCorp manage accounting and tax together?+
Yes. The scope can connect bookkeeping, reconciliations, TDS, GST context, financial reporting and income-tax preparation.
02Is a monthly plan necessary?+
It is usually more reliable for active businesses, while low-volume or inactive entities may need a different periodic cycle.
03Will RegisCorp replace our statutory auditor?+
No. Audit and accounting independence requirements must be respected. Audit coordination can be scoped separately with an eligible professional.
04Can old records be reconstructed?+
Yes, subject to source evidence, available portal data, bank records and a clearly defined reconstruction period.
05Do you support multiple entities?+
Yes. The scope should identify each entity, system, reporting calendar and consolidation requirement.
06How is pricing decided?+
Pricing depends on entity count, periods, transaction volume, payroll, registrations, record quality and reporting complexity.
Verify rules, forms and due dates from primary sources.
What do you need your accounting service to deliver?
Start with the output, not a generic package name. Bookkeeping, tax filing, reporting and strategic finance use connected records but have different responsibilities. This planning tool suggests a guide to explore, not a tax conclusion or confirmed quotation.
Organise monthly books
Output to discuss: Reconciled ledgers and an exception list.
Records to prepare: Bank and payment-gateway statements, sales invoices, purchase evidence, payroll records and opening balances.

Ask for the deliverables, exclusions, review stages, document cut-off and expected completion sequence in writing. Professional fees, taxes and any third-party charges should be explained in the quotation. No fixed fee is invented here.

Use this comparison alongside the service descriptions already on this page. Several routes may be needed together, but each should retain a named owner and explicit completion evidence.
| Service goal | Output | Scope question |
|---|---|---|
| Organise monthly books | Reconciled ledgers and an exception list | Confirm whether GST, TDS, inventory and period-end reporting are included or separately scoped. |
| Prepare a business income-tax return | A reviewed computation and applicable return | Return selection, audit applicability and tax treatment require entity- and year-specific review; a selector cannot decide them. |
| Organise TDS return filing | Deduction, payment and statement reconciliation | Identify the period and any correction requirement before combining current filing with historical remediation. |
| Understand business performance | Management reports with an explained reporting basis | Agree the report frequency, definitions and owners. Management reporting is not an independent audit opinion. |
| Respond to an income-tax notice | A notice-specific evidence and response plan | Share the stated deadline immediately. Do not assume a generic filing package includes notice representation. |
| Build cash and finance controls | Cash planning, reporting cadence and decision ownership | Confirm advisory versus execution responsibilities. Forecasts depend on assumptions and funding is not guaranteed. |
