G P R S & ASSOCIATES

What G P R S & ASSOCIATES does

G P R S & Associates is an India-based chartered accountancy firm headquartered in Surat, Gujarat, with a second office in Bangalore. Founded in 2011, the firm operates as a partnership of six qualified Chartered Accountants — including co-founders with prior Big Four experience (Sumit Sethia, ex-PwC India) — supported by a team of CAs, Company Secretaries, IFRS-certified professionals, and an IBBI Registered Valuer. The client base spans small and medium enterprises, high-net-worth individuals, family offices, NGOs, and trusts across real estate, manufacturing, and services.

The firm delivers a full-suite professional services offering organized into five practice lines: Finance & Accounting, Assurance (including statutory and tax audit), Tax Advisory, Regulatory Advisory and Corporate Restructuring, and Family Office Management. Underlying technical components are traditional rather than technology-led — engagement delivery relies on qualified practitioner time, regulatory credentials, and client relationships rather than proprietary software, platforms, or AI tooling. The firm positions itself as using 'the latest technology,' but no specific systems, models, or data infrastructure are disclosed.

The business model is engagement-based professional services revenue, billed through statutory audit retainers, tax filings, valuation assignments, transaction advisory mandates, and ongoing HNI advisory. Additional ancillary revenue comes from a co-working space operated out of the Surat office. The firm is bootstrapped with no external funding and grows organically through partner-led client acquisition, with CA Sandeep Ladha's track record of raising 600+ Crores on behalf of clients serving as a key go-to-market signal for capital-raising mandates.
