Monthly Accounting, GST & Payroll Compliance for Indian Businesses

Your company already exists — this is the work that keeps it running. APG maintains your books, files your GST and TDS returns, processes payroll and delivers MIS you can actually make decisions on, month after month.

Not incorporated yet? Setting up a new entity is a separate one-time service — see company registration for Pvt Ltd, LLP & OPC.

Who this is for

Built for businesses that are already running

Incorporation is one day of paperwork. Everything after it is a monthly obligation — and that is what this service covers.

🏬

Founders without an in-house finance team

You need books, GST and payroll handled properly, but not a full-time accountant on payroll yet.

📈

Growing companies outgrowing spreadsheets

Transaction volume has crossed the point where Excel and a part-time bookkeeper stop being safe.

🧭

Businesses that have fallen behind

Returns pending, books unreconciled, notices piling up — we clean it up and get you current.

🌏

Foreign-owned Indian subsidiaries

Local compliance run to Indian law, with reporting in the format your parent company expects.

What changes

What you stop worrying about

📅

Due dates

We run a compliance calendar per client and chase documents before each deadline, not after.

💳

Lost input tax credit

Purchase register reconciled to GSTR-2B every month, so credit isn't silently forfeited.

⚠️

Notices and late fees

Correct filings the first time, and a plan to close out anything already outstanding.

👤

Chasing your accountant

One named point of contact and in-house CA/CS backup — nothing outsourced to a third party.

The recurring calendar

The filings we run for you

A registered Indian business carries these obligations every year. This is the cycle APG manages on your behalf.

A predictable monthly cycle

01

Books review

We look at your current records, registrations and pending filings, then scope a fixed monthly fee.

02

Clean-up & handover

Balances reconciled, gaps closed, and your accounting system set up properly if it isn't already.

03

Monthly run

Entries, reconciliation, GST and TDS filings and payroll — on a calendar, with documents chased ahead of time.

04

Reporting & review

You get an MIS pack each month and a review call, so the numbers inform decisions instead of just sitting there.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do you also register new companies, or only handle accounting?
This service covers the ongoing financial work after your business exists — bookkeeping, GST, TDS, payroll and reporting. Incorporating a new Pvt Ltd, LLP or OPC is a separate, one-time service handled by our company registration team. Most clients start with registration and then move onto a monthly compliance retainer.
Which GST returns do you file, and how often?
We handle GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B monthly (or quarterly under the QRMP scheme), the annual GSTR-9/9C where applicable, and GST registration or amendments when needed. We reconcile your purchase register against GSTR-2B every month so input tax credit isn’t lost.
Can you take over books that are behind or messy?
Yes. Catch-up and clean-up work is common. We reconcile bank and cash balances, rebuild missing ledgers, fix misclassified entries and correct earlier filings where the law allows, then move you onto a clean monthly cycle.
Do you work in Tally, Zoho Books or QuickBooks?
Yes — we work in whichever system you already use, including Tally, Zoho Books, QuickBooks and Busy. If you don’t have one yet, we’ll set one up and structure the chart of accounts properly from the start.
What does payroll compliance include?
Monthly salary processing, payslips, TDS on salary and Form 16, plus PF and ESI computation, challans and returns. You approve the payroll run; we handle the filings and the statutory paperwork behind it.
Who actually does the work on my account?
A qualified in-house accountant supported by our CA/CS team. Nothing is outsourced to a third party, and you deal with the same point of contact each month rather than a ticket queue.
How is this priced?
As a monthly retainer scoped to your transaction volume, headcount and the number of registrations you hold. We quote a fixed monthly fee after a short review of your books, so there are no per-filing surprises. Statutory and government fees are always charged at actuals.
What happens if a deadline is missed?
We run a compliance calendar for every client and chase documents ahead of each due date, which is how deadlines are kept. If you come to us with existing defaults, we’ll quantify the interest and late fees, file the pending returns and get you current.
