Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Chartered Accountant (CA) with 4–6 years of post-qualification experience—preferably from a reputed CA / tax consulting firm—to lead our GST and Indian Direct Taxation compliance, advisory, and litigation support functions.

Key Responsibilities

• Oversee monthly GSTR-2B vs. Purchase Register reconciliations, ensuring optimal Input Tax Credit (ITC) claims, proper reversal of blocked/exempt credits (Sections 17(2) & 17(5)), and vendor compliance tracking.
• Manage E-Invoicing, E-Way Bill controls, Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) compliance, ISD (Input Service Distributor) distributions, and export/SEZ refund claims.
• Advise commercial, procurement, and supply chain teams on HSN/SAC classification, place of supply, taxability of new business models, and contract clauses.

• Supervise monthly TDS/TCS compliance, quarterly return filings (Forms 24Q, 26Q, 27Q, 27EQ), lower deduction certificate (Section 197) tracking, and quarterly Form 26AS / AIS-TIS reconciliations.
• Lead quarterly Advance Tax computations, year-end current and deferred tax provisioning, and end-to-end preparation of Tax Audit (Form 3CD) schedules and Income Tax Returns (ITR).
• Review cross-border remittances for withholding tax implications, DTAA applicability, and Form 15CA / 15CB certification coordination.

• Leverage consulting experience to independently draft robust legal and factual replies to GST and Income Tax notices (ASMT-10, DRC-01, SCNs, Section 143(2), Section 148, etc.).
• Lead departmental GST audits, anti-evasion inquiries, and income tax scrutiny assessments, representing the company before tax authorities and coordinating with external senior counsels when required.
• Manage statutory and tax audit sign-offs smoothly with external auditors.

• Guide and review the work of tax executives and accounting associates handling day-to-day tax entries and reconciliations.
• Implement automated tax reconciliation tools, strengthen ERP tax controls, and establish SOPs for proactive compliance with ongoing GST and Income Tax legislative amendments.

Qualifications & Experience

• Education: Qualified Chartered Accountant (CA) from ICAI (1st or 2nd attempt preferred).
• Experience: 4–6 years of post-qualification experience in Indian Indirect (GST) and Direct Taxation.
• Preferred Background: Candidates with a background in reputed CA firms or Big 4 / mid-tier tax consulting practices having hands-on exposure to multi-client tax audits, GST annual returns/reconciliations, and litigation/notice drafting are strongly preferred.

Key Competencies

• Independent Ownership: Capable of transitioning seamlessly from an advisory environment to owning end-to-end execution, strict statutory calendars, and cross-functional stakeholder alignment.
• Risk & Control Mindset: Proactive in identifying tax leakages, ITC exposures, and compliance gaps before they escalate into departmental notices.
• People & Stakeholder Management: Effective at mentoring junior team members and communicating tax implications clearly to non-finance leadership and auditors.
