Finding a CA: criteria, fees etc
Hey viners, I’m looking for a CA to optimize taxes and file them. How do I go about finding for someone? How to evaluate if someone is good or just a sham. Also how much do they charge you?
Hey 👋
CA here!
A couple of things I would look out for, if I were a client looking to optimise taxes & file tax return:
-
Understanding of ESOP/RSU (crucial, if you are working in startup)
-
Communication & Response time (usually 24 hours TAT is ok + regular updates on advance tax is great!)
-
Ask about recent assignments of tax planning. What was the approach, what was the scenario & outcome of tax planning. This is crucial to separate wheat from the chaff.
On the pricing, it is quite subjective & can vary widely. For tax planning upwards of ₹5K & Tax filing would be between 3-8K depending on complexity.
You can DM me, I'm currently working as CA at 2 firms with 5 years of experience. 9164567759
