CA in Mumbai — Chartered Accountants in Andheri East & Fort
Comprehensive, ICAI-certified solutions to help you navigate compliance and optimize your financial strategy.
Expert CA in Mumbai
KC Shah & Associates is a Mumbai-based chartered accountancy firm working with businesses, professionals and families across the city and the wider metropolitan region. We operate from two offices — Marol MIDC in Andheri East and Horniman Circle in Fort — which between them cover the suburban commercial belt and the traditional business district.
How we work across Mumbai
Mumbai is not a single market. An export unit in SEEPZ, a production house in Andheri West, a foreign subsidiary in BKC and a family trading firm in Fort face genuinely different compliance realities, and each needs a different starting conversation. Our practice is organised around that: the underlying statutory work is the same, but the advisory framing, the reporting cadence and the systems we recommend are matched to how the business actually runs.
Most engagements are delivered on cloud accounting infrastructure — typically Zoho Books — with secure document exchange and scheduled review calls. That means clients across Thane, Navi Mumbai, Borivali, Malad, Goregaon and Bandra get the same service without travel, while the two offices remain available for audit planning, valuation discussions and anything better handled face to face.
What we do
- ▸Outsourced accounting and payroll on Zoho Books, including migration from Tally or spreadsheets
- ▸Business, ESOP and regulatory valuation by an IBBI-registered valuer
- ▸Income tax and GST — registration, returns, notices, assessments and representation
- ▸Company, LLP and startup incorporation, including DPIIT recognition and post-incorporation compliance
- ▸Statutory, internal and management audit, plus virtual CFO and FEMA advisory

Compliance That Is Specific to Mumbai
Central taxes are the same everywhere in India. What differs by city is the state and municipal layer, and it is the layer non-local advisers most often miss.
Maharashtra professional tax
Every employer in Maharashtra must register for Profession Tax (both PTEC and PTRC where applicable), deduct professional tax from salaries on the state's slab, and remit it on the prescribed cycle. It is a small monthly amount that accumulates into a meaningful penalty when overlooked for a year, and it is separate from anything the income tax department will remind you about.
Shops and Establishments registration
Businesses operating in Mumbai register under the Maharashtra Shops and Establishments (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act with the MCGM. The registration is commonly required as supporting proof when opening a current account, applying for credit or completing customer onboarding, and renewal deadlines are easy to miss.
Labour Welfare Fund
Maharashtra LWF contributions fall due twice a year, in June and December, with both an employee and employer component. There is no monthly reminder and no return that flags it, which is precisely why it is the item most often found outstanding during due diligence.
GST administration in Mumbai
Maharashtra is state code 27. Mumbai businesses fall under specific Central and State GST commissionerates and divisions depending on the registered address, and it determines which office issues notices and where a personal hearing takes place. Getting the jurisdiction right on registration saves considerable trouble later.

What We Do for Mumbai Businesses
The core engagements are outsourced accounting on a monthly close cycle, GST filing and notice handling, income tax compliance and assessments, business valuation by a Registered Valuer, company incorporation and ROC compliance, virtual CFO support, and audit and assurance. Where a business is still on Tally, we move it to the cloud using our Tally to Zoho Books migration framework.
Choosing a CA in Mumbai
Three questions separate firms in practice. First, who actually does the work — a Chartered Accountant, or a junior with a CA signing off at the end? Second, is the relationship monthly or annual? A firm that appears in September to file your return cannot prevent the errors made in March. Third, can they handle the specialist work in-house, or does valuation, FEMA and NCLT work get referred out at your cost? For an indication of what engagements cost locally, see our guide to CA fees in Mumbai.
