What bansal does

Bansal & Co LLP is a New Delhi-headquartered chartered accountancy and advisory firm founded in 1973 by Mr. S. K. Bansal. The firm operates as a private Limited Liability Partnership under Indian law and serves a diversified client base spanning listed entities, multinational corporations, banks, non-banking financial companies (NBFCs), small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and start-ups across sectors including manufacturing, IT services, hospitality, real estate, and agribusiness.

The firm's core offerings span twelve professional service lines, organized around four pillars: Assurance & Advisory (statutory audits, IFRS/Ind-AS readiness, PCAOB/CPAB/UK FRC audits, due diligence, bank audits); Tax Advisory & Compliance (direct, indirect, international tax, GST, FEMA, transfer pricing); Governance, Risk & Transaction Advisory (SOX implementation, enterprise risk management, M&A support, IPO support, intangible valuation, carve-out financials); and Integrity & IT Advisory (forensic audits, fraud investigations, IT systems audit including VAPT). Supporting these is an online suite of financial calculators (GST, TDS, income tax, EMI, SIP, RERA) and a regulatory bulletin repository that functions as a client knowledge bank. The firm does not develop proprietary software platforms; its competitive delivery rests on professional credentials, multi-jurisdictional audit expertise (PCAOB, CPAB, UK FRC), and Big 4-trained partners.

The business model is engagement-based professional services billing, with revenue generated across four streams: Assurance & Advisory (project/retainer), Tax Advisory & Compliance (advisory plus recurring retainers), Transaction Advisory (project-based, deal-value-linked), and GST & Regulatory Compliance (subscription/recurring). The go-to-market relies on partner-led direct engagement, professional network referrals, and leadership positions in ICAI and ACFE India Chapter. No public fee schedule exists, and revenue figures are not disclosed. The firm has 51-100 employees including approximately a dozen named partners with Big 4 lineage (Ernst & Young, KPMG, PwC) and a branch in Bilaspur. There is no external institutional investment, parent company, or subsidiary relationships.
