CA Chetan V. Oswal

(Founder, Mentor and Guide)

I have always believed that Chartered Accountants are partner in a client’s growth and success. CA should always guide the businessman during all decision making beforehand rather than doing a post mortem activity. Following this “Value-Addition” principle, I have always strived to be a valuable contributor to the growth of the clients’ businesses from the start-up phase to the growth phase.

My success results from a deep learning of my clients’ businesses and applying the technical knowledge and experience gained over past 15 years. My in depth understanding of financial modelling allows me to assist clients with forecasts, budgets and scenario analysis to ensure that my clients are able to make informed decisions which are critical to every business success.

My skill and experience allow me to take the risk out of operating in India for my clients by allowing them to concentrate on their core activities with the knowledge that their finance function is fully compliant and generating timely and meaningful reports which can be relied upon. I love training people on various technical topics and take forward this hobby to train departmental people on several occasions.

I regularly write articles for renowned print and digital media agencies and magazines. I have been invited by various FM and TV channels for speaking on various topics of professional updates. Personally speaking, I love travelling, going for hikes and trekking, running marathons, learning new technologies, reading books and spiritual learning.
