Its dedicated Valuation, Modeling, and Market Insights Team brings international expertise and a proven track record, including experience in U.S. and Australian markets through the acquisition of Veristrat India operations.

The role
We are looking for a qualified Chartered Accountant with 3–4 years of post-qualification experience to join us as a Tax Associate. You will work directly with the practice leader across a range of domestic and international tax mandates — from compliance to advisory — and be expected to develop into a trusted, independent contributor over time.
This is not a back-office compliance role. You will be client-facing, intellectually challenged, and given room to grow.
What you will do
- Manage end-to-end direct tax compliance for a portfolio of corporate and individual clients — including return filing, advance tax, TDS, tax audits and assessments
- Assist on domestic and international tax advisory matters — structuring, opinions, transaction support, and regulatory analysis
- Support transfer pricing documentation and compliance
- Research and analyse complex tax positions, draft memos and client communications
- Liaise with clients and tax authorities as needed
- Stay current on legislative changes, case law, and regulatory developments and flag relevant updates proactively
What we are looking for
- Qualified Chartered Accountant with 2–4 years of post-qualification experience in direct tax (must) — in a CA firm, or mid-tier tax practice
- Strong, demonstrable knowledge of direct tax compliance
- Solid understanding of the Income Tax Act, assessment and appellate procedures, and TDS framework
- Exposure to international tax concepts — DTAA, withholding tax, cross-border structuring — is a significant advantage
- Ability to research, structure arguments, and write clearly
- High attention to detail and a strong sense of ownership
- Someone who thrives in a small team environment, takes initiative, and does not wait to be told what to do
- Has a passion and dedication to build tax practice
What you can expect
- Direct mentorship from partners with over a decade of Big 4 and independent practice experience
- Exposure to a genuinely varied and intellectually stimulating portfolio of work
- A culture that values quality of thinking over hierarchy
- Room to grow into advisory, client management, and leadership as the practice scales
- Hybrid and flexible work environment
