What We Need From You

Non-Negotiable Skills

• Tally Prime — must be fully proficient. Bank reconciliation, ledger management, inventory vouchers, cost centres, and MIS reports in Tally. If you cannot do all of this in Tally independently, this role is not for you.
• GST — GSTR-1, GSTR-3B filing, and 2A/2B reconciliation must be done independently without external help for routine months
• TDS — section-wise deduction, deposit, and quarterly return filing must be known cold
• Excel / Google Sheets — pivot tables, VLOOKUP, basic formulas for MIS preparation. You will be building monthly reports — basic formatting is not enough.
• Project costing — experience tracking job-wise or project-wise costs in a manufacturing or construction environment is strongly preferred

Experience Background
We will prioritise candidates from these industries:
Construction company accounts — contractor, builder, or developer
Manufacturing company — any sector with production and inventory accounting
Building materials or infrastructure company
Real estate developer or EPC company

Candidates from trading, retail, or service-only companies without any manufacturing or construction exposure will find it more difficult to adapt to the job-cost and inventory accounting requirements of this role.

Qualifications

• B.Com / M.Com — mandatory
• CA Inter (one or both groups cleared) — strong added advantage, not mandatory
• 3 to 6 years of full-time industry experience in accounts

Personal Qualities

• Meets every deadline without being reminded — GST on the 11th and 20th, TDS by the 7th, salaries on the 1st — these dates do not move
• Raises a financial concern or discrepancy the same day it is found — never waits for month-end to flag a problem
• Keeps books clean and audit-ready at all times — not just before an audit
• Works independently — this is a sole accountant role; you must be self-sufficient
