What problems it solves

The problems this service fixes.

  • Missed GST, TDS and income tax deadlines that trigger penalties and notices
  • Bookkeeping that lags 30–60 days behind reality — no timely visibility of P&L or cash
  • Vendor invoices, e-way bills and payments handled ad-hoc across WhatsApp and email
  • No monthly MIS pack that founders and boards can actually act on
  • Multiple people, no owner — errors slip between the accountant, the CA and the founder

Frequently asked

Questions this service answers.

An in-house junior accountant handles data entry but rarely owns compliance timelines, MIS quality or coordination with your CA. Griffin operates as a full team — senior review, structured processes and single-point accountability — for the cost of one mid-level hire.

No. Griffin runs the day-to-day accounting and compliance operations. Statutory audit sign-off, tax opinions and ITR filings remain with your licensed CA — we hand over clean, audit-ready books and coordinate closely with them.

We work on Tally Prime, Zoho Books, QuickBooks and most Indian accounting platforms. If you're on an older stack, we can also migrate you to a cleaner setup as part of onboarding.

Typical transition takes 3–4 weeks. Week 1 is assessment and access, weeks 2–3 are data migration and process setup, week 4 onwards is live delivery with a running compliance calendar.

Yes. Most of our clients are based in Maharashtra, Karnataka, NCR and Tamil Nadu. Delivery is entirely remote with monthly review calls; we visit on-site for onboarding when needed.

We work on a monthly retainer sized to your transaction volume and scope. Every engagement is quoted after an intake call — there are no hidden fees or per-return charges for the core scope.
