Accounting and Bookkeeping Services in India
Reliable, tech-enabled outsourced accounting for startups, SMEs and growing businesses anywhere in India — clean books, GST-ready records, payroll and monthly MIS, without the cost of a full in-house finance team.
Who needs outsourced accounting and bookkeeping?
For most founders and business owners, the accounts are the last thing they want to spend a Sunday on — and the first thing that trips them up at GST filing, at year-end, or when an investor or bank asks for numbers. Aidwish provides outsourced accounting and bookkeeping services in India that take this entire function off your plate. From a startup filing its first returns to an established SME handling hundreds of monthly invoices, we maintain accurate, up-to-date books so you always know where the money is, stay compliant, and can make decisions on real figures rather than guesswork.
We work as your remote finance back office. Your transactions are recorded in the accounting software you already use — Tally, Zoho Books or QuickBooks — with proper ledgers, cost heads and bank reconciliations. Every month you receive a clean set of books, a GST-ready summary, payroll processed on time and a simple management report that tells you how the business is actually doing. Because we operate pan-India and fully online, it makes no difference whether you are in Mumbai, Bengaluru, Delhi NCR, a tier-2 town or working with a distributed team.
The result is finance you can trust without the overhead of hiring, training and retaining an in-house team. You get a qualified, supervised process at a predictable monthly fee, with data security and clear communication built in — so your energy stays on running and growing the business.
Early-stage startups that need clean, investor-ready books from day one but cannot justify a full-time accountant
SMEs and family businesses where the owner or a junior clerk is currently handling accounts on the side and errors are creeping in
Growing companies whose transaction volume has outpaced a single in-house person and who need reliable monthly closing
E-commerce sellers and D2C brands managing multi-marketplace settlements, returns and reconciliations
Professional practices, agencies and consultancies that bill clients and need tidy receivables and expense tracking
Businesses facing GST, TDS or statutory-audit deadlines with books that are behind and need to be brought current
Foreign-owned or multi-city operations that want a single, consistent accounting partner across India
Accounting & Bookkeeping — end to end
Recording of all sales, purchases, expenses, receipts and payments with correct ledger classification and cost heads, kept current so your books are never a backlog.
Regular reconciliation of bank accounts, credit cards, wallets and key vendor/customer ledgers so balances always tie out and discrepancies are caught early.
Tracking of what you owe and what is owed to you, with ageing reports, payment scheduling support and follow-up-ready outstanding statements.
Monthly salary computation with PF, ESI, professional tax and TDS on salary, generation of payslips and a payroll register ready for disbursement.
Books maintained GST-compliant with output tax, input tax credit and GSTR-2B reconciliation, so return filing is smooth and ITC is not lost.
Identification of TDS-applicable transactions, section-wise deduction working and challan-ready summaries to support timely payment and return filing.
Profit & loss, balance sheet, cash-flow view and key ratios presented in a simple monthly report so you can read performance at a glance.
Finalisation of accounts, schedules and reconciliations at year-end, plus coordination with your auditor for a clean, efficient statutory audit.

Fees & what you pay
No hidden charges. Government fees are billed at actuals; our professional fee is agreed upfront.
How long it takes
Understanding your business, granting software access or setting up Tally/Zoho/QuickBooks, migrating opening balances and agreeing the monthly scope and reporting format.
Recording transactions, cleaning up any legacy entries and establishing reconciliations, so the first proper monthly close is delivered on schedule.
Daily/weekly entries through the month, reconciliations, payroll, GST and TDS working, and delivery of the monthly MIS shortly after month-end.
Where books are behind, we bring them current in a focused sprint; timeline depends on the number of pending months and transactions.
Finalisation of accounts and audit coordination aligned to filing deadlines — completion is subject to timely data and the auditor's schedule.
A clear, guided process
Discovery & scoping
We understand your business model, transaction volume, current software and pain points, then recommend the right plan and reporting format — no obligation.
Onboarding & software setup
We take secure access to your existing books or set up a fresh Tally/Zoho/QuickBooks environment, migrate opening balances and agree a document-sharing routine.
Recording & reconciliation
Your transactions are entered and classified through the month, with bank, vendor and GST reconciliations keeping the books accurate and audit-ready.
Reporting & compliance support
Each month you receive management reports and GST/TDS/payroll working, so filings and decisions rest on clean, timely numbers.

Questions, answered
What is the difference between accounting and bookkeeping?
Bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording of transactions — sales, purchases, receipts and payments — into properly classified ledgers. Accounting builds on that to reconcile, adjust, finalise and interpret the numbers into reports like the P&L and balance sheet. Our service covers both, so you get accurate records and useful reporting from a single team.
How much do outsourced accounting and bookkeeping services in India cost?
Fees are typically charged as a monthly retainer based on your transaction volume. Small startups often fall in the Rs. 3,000–6,000 range, growing SMEs around Rs. 7,000–18,000, and high-volume or multi-entity businesses Rs. 20,000 and above. Payroll and one-time backlog work are quoted separately, and the exact figure is confirmed after we review your books.
Why should I outsource accounting instead of hiring an in-house accountant?
Outsourcing gives you a supervised, review-based process at a predictable monthly cost, without the expense and effort of recruiting, training and retaining staff. You avoid single-person dependency and gaps during leave or resignation. For most startups and SMEs it delivers more reliable books at a lower total cost than a full-time hire.
Which accounting software do you work on?
We work on Tally, Zoho Books and QuickBooks — the platforms most Indian businesses use. If you already use one, we continue on it; if not, we help you choose and set it up cleanly. This keeps your data portable and accessible to you at all times.
How do you keep my financial data secure and confidential?
We use controlled, need-based access to your accounts, maintain confidentiality as standard practice and handle your financial information carefully. Your data stays in your own software environment wherever possible, and access is limited to the team members working on your books.
Can you bring my overdue or backlogged books up to date?
Yes. Backlog clean-up is a common request, especially before GST, TDS or audit deadlines. We assess how many months and how many transactions are pending, quote a one-time fixed fee, and bring the books current in a focused sprint before moving you onto the regular monthly cycle.
