Shivam Kumar, ACA

Partner · Income Tax & Litigation

Shivam Kumar is the founding partner of the firm and its lead practitioner on income tax. He personally handles income tax return filing for individuals, professionals, partnerships and companies, and takes ownership of tax planning well before a deadline ever becomes a concern. His core area of strength is income tax litigation — he represents clients in scrutiny assessments, responds to notices issued under sections such as 143(1), 148 and 245, and drafts detailed submissions for reassessment proceedings. He regularly appears before Assessing Officers and prepares appeal documentation for the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), building each case on solid record-keeping rather than argument alone. Beyond litigation, he advises clients on capital gains planning, TDS compliance, advance tax computation, and presumptive taxation schemes suited to small businesses and professionals. He also oversees the firm's statutory and tax audit engagements, making sure every audit is conducted to ICAI standards and closed within the assessment timeline. For companies and LLPs, he manages incorporation and the ongoing ROC filings needed to keep an entity in good standing with the Registrar. Clients dealing with an income tax notice, a demand, or a pending assessment work directly with him rather than being routed through a call centre or a rotating point of contact. He believes most tax disputes are avoidable with clean, contemporaneous documentation, and structures every client's filings with that discipline in mind from the very first return. Having handled matters ranging from routine compliance to complex reassessment and appellate proceedings, he brings a litigation-first mindset to even the most ordinary filing work, anticipating how a return would hold up if it were ever questioned. He also advises on responses to income tax intimations and refund follow-ups, so smaller issues are resolved before they escalate into disputes. An Associate member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ACA), he founded the firm in Kanpur in 2024 with a focus on direct, partner-led client service.

Bhawya Singh, ACA

Associate · GST & Bookkeeping

Bhawya Singh is an Associate at the firm and works primarily on GST compliance and client bookkeeping. She manages end-to-end GST for a portfolio of clients — fresh registrations, monthly and quarterly return filing (GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B), and annual returns, along with input tax credit reconciliation against GSTR-2B before every filing. She routinely reviews vendor invoices and purchase registers to catch mismatches early, so a client's credit isn't held up or flagged in a mismatch report later. Where a GST notice or a show-cause has already landed, she prepares the supporting reconciliation and drafts the reply for the partner's review. Alongside GST, she maintains day-to-day bookkeeping and accounting for several clients — recording transactions, reconciling bank statements, and closing books on a monthly basis so management always has an up-to-date financial picture rather than a scramble at year-end. She prepares periodic MIS summaries and ledger scrutiny reports that flag unusual entries before they become bigger problems at audit time. She also assists with TDS return filing and reconciliation for clients who deduct tax at source on vendor and salary payments. During the audit season, she supports fieldwork by organising client records, vouching transactions, and preparing schedules the partner reviews and signs off on. Clients with straightforward monthly compliance needs — GST filing, book updates, and basic MIS — typically have Bhawya as their day-to-day point of contact, with the partner stepping in for anything that needs a final call. She joined the firm in January 2026 and is an Associate member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ACA).

Jahnvi Dhawan, ACA

Associate · GST & Bookkeeping

Jahnvi Dhawan is an Associate at the firm, working across GST compliance, bookkeeping, and audit support. On the GST side, she prepares and files monthly and quarterly returns, reconciles input tax credit against GSTR-2B, and maintains the working papers that make each filing easy to defend if it's ever questioned. She handles the firm's client accounting for a set of businesses — maintaining books on the client's preferred software, reconciling bank and cash accounts every month, and closing the books so financial statements are ready well ahead of any filing deadline. She prepares trial balances, ledger scrutiny notes, and basic MIS reports that give business owners a clear read on their numbers between formal audits. She also assists in preparing and reviewing income tax returns for individuals and small businesses, cross-checking Form 26AS and AIS data against the client's own records before anything is filed. During statutory and tax audit engagements, she supports fieldwork by vouching transactions, preparing audit schedules, and organising supporting documentation the partner reviews before sign-off. She helps clients respond to routine income tax and GST intimations by pulling together the reconciliations and records needed to close the query quickly. She pays close attention to due dates across GST, TDS and income tax, flagging anything approaching deadline so nothing is filed late. Clients working with Jahnvi get consistent, hands-on support on the recurring compliance work that keeps a business audit-ready year-round. She joined the firm in January 2026 and is an Associate member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ACA).
