Tax processing services in India

Tax season comes and companies in the US start floating in a sea of pending jobs and unprocessed returns. This is making lots of US companies look for offshore services (to be more specific, towards India) to take care of their accounting burdens.

The company waded uncomfortably Last year, through tax season, being short of help to relieve its staff accountants who were dealing with more tax returns than they could handle.

The benefits of offshore outsourcing are many and include reduced staffing costs, since chartered accountants in India have far lower billing rates than CPAs in the United States, plus a quicker turnaround due to the time difference. It gives a nice 24 hour working style. India annually produces thousands of English speaking accounting graduates versed in U.S. tax codes.
Security issues in India, though a concern to US firms, are as good as non-existent since the counter measures taken are equally stringent as in the US. Nothing comes without a price and there have been questions regarding ethical issues and as to whether outsourcing actually saves as much money as claimed.
We suggest to have a try with getting smaller work done with this model, to see how you can best utilize it.
