Roles & Responsibilities 1. Statutory Audit & Assurance • Independently handle statutory audits with Big 4 or comparable audit firms end-to-end – planning, preparing schedules and reconciliations, resolving queries, and driving timely, clean closure with no major escalations. • Serve as the primary finance point of contact for auditors; pre-empt audit and governance matters that have a direct bearing on the financials and ensure the team is audit-ready at all times. • Coordinate tax, GST and other statutory audits alongside the respective experts and consultants. 2. Financial Reporting & Ind AS Transition • Prepare standalone and consolidated financial statements, including multi-period and multi-entity consolidations. The company currently reports under Indian GAAP (notified Accounting Standards). • Lead the transition from Accounting Standards (Indian GAAP) to Ind AS – first-time adoption under Ind AS, GAAP-to-Ind AS difference analysis, restatement of comparatives, and assessment of the impact on financials and disclosures. • Apply Ind AS to complex areas – revenue recognition, ESOP accounting, financial instruments, leases, expected credit loss and related-party disclosures. • Track changes in accounting standards and assess their impact on the company's financials. 3. Month-End Close & Books • Own a timely and accurate monthly close; support the transition of accounting in-house for real-time closure after each month-end. • Prepare and review key reconciliations, accruals and provisions; ensure every projection and output has a documented, saved input with nothing left ad-hoc. 4. Investor Relations & MIS Reporting • Handle investor reporting and MIS – prepare periodic investor decks, board and management MIS, and performance dashboards accurately and on schedule. • Respond to ad-hoc investor, board and regulatory (e.g. RBI / CoC) requirements – consolidated and standalone financials, projections and write-ups – within tight turnaround times. 5. Taxation & Statutory Compliance • Manage direct and indirect tax risk end-to-end – related-party transaction (RPT) amendments, MAT exposure, transfer-pricing documentation and GST structuring – owning the underlying analysis and outcomes while working with external experts on execution. • Oversee timely, accurate direct and indirect tax filings (income tax, TDS, GST) and coordinate tax and GST audits and assessments. • Coordinate statutory, ROC / Companies Act and secretarial compliances with the company secretary and consultants; track related-party and regulatory documentation requirements. 6. Treasury & Cash Flow • Support treasury and cash-flow management – fund-flow planning, working-capital tracking and banking relationships – and maintain accurate visibility of escrow and restricted balances. 7. Internal Controls, Policy & Process • Support the design, roll-out and testing of Internal Financial Controls (IFC / IFCR) and build a structured, audit- ready control environment. • Establish and maintain the accounting policy framework, SOPs and delegation-of-authority matrix; keep robust documentation and process notes to strengthen governance and reduce audit and litigation risk. • Drive ERP / accounting-system improvements and automation with appropriate system controls to enable faster, more reliable reporting. 8. Planning & Budgeting • Maintain a working knowledge of the Annual Operating Plan (AOP) and budgeting cycle; partner with cross functional teams on projections and budget-versus-actual variance analysis, with well-documented assumptions.
