Rakesh Kushwah

With over 7 years of experience in finance, taxation, and compliance, I have managed diverse client portfolios across industries such as infrastructure, IT, manufacturing, retail, and import-export. My expertise spans GST compliance and litigation, income tax filings, ROC compliance, statutory audits, and financial reporting.

At VD Kothari & Associates, I successfully filed 1500+ GST returns, reconciled ITC mismatches exceeding ₹150 lakhs, and prepared 1000+ income tax returns with complete accuracy. I also handled ROC filings and supported audits for clients with turnovers above ₹100 crore, contributing to profitability improvement and cost control.

Previously, at Ratlam Ventures LLP and Prepack Marketing, I managed end-to-end accounting, GST/TDS compliance, and financial analysis, ensuring operational efficiency and compliance accuracy. My early career at Rakesh Yadav & Company gave me strong grounding in audits, bookkeeping, and year-end closing.

I bring proven strengths in process automation, compliance advisory, and regulatory risk management, supported by advanced ERP and accounting software skills (Tally, Zoho Books, QuickBooks). My certification in the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act, 2023) further enhances my ability to advise on data privacy and compliance.

I hold a Master of Commerce (M.Com) in Accounts & Taxation from Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya, Indore, and a Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) in Finance from the International School of Business Administration, Indore. These programs have provided me with strong foundations in taxation, corporate finance, and compliance management.

Additionally, I completed a Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com) in Taxation from DAVV, Indore, which built my core accounting and taxation knowledge. To strengthen my regulatory expertise, I earned a Certificate in Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act, 2023) with distinction (92%), enhancing my ability to advise on compliance and data privacy matters.
