Accounting & Taxation
The unglamorous work that decides whether your numbers are trustworthy: reconciliations that actually reconcile, a close calendar that holds, and a documented trail behind every entry.
Does this sound like you?
Your close keeps slipping
Month-end takes three weeks and the numbers change after they are reported. You need a calendar with owners against each line, not another spreadsheet.
Your accountant is doing bookkeeping
You are paying professional rates for data entry. Moving the transactional layer offshore frees the expensive hours for the work that needs judgement.
You are growing across entities or currencies
Two entities became five, and the consolidation is held together by one person and their memory. You need it documented before that person takes leave.

Platforms we already work in
Not an exhaustive list. If your stack isn’t here, it is usually still workable — raise it on the scoping call.
How we hold ourselves accountable
Maker and checker, always
The person who prepares an entry is never the person who approves it. That separation is the whole control, and it is why the engagement is priced with a reviewer in it rather than as raw data-entry hours.
A close calendar with named owners
Each close task has a working-day target, an owner on our side and a dependency on yours. When a close slips, the calendar shows exactly which dependency slipped first.
An audit trail you can follow without us
Every non-routine journal carries a written rationale and a link to its supporting document. If we were replaced tomorrow, your next team could reconstruct the reasoning.
Security for this line of work
Financial data is the highest-risk category we handle, and it is treated that way: access is per-named-user inside your accounting platform, never a shared login; banking access is read-only or view-and-prepare, never payment-release; and no client financial data leaves the platform onto local storage.
Shoora Global provides preparation, bookkeeping and support work. We do not provide licensed tax advice, sign returns, or issue audit opinions in any jurisdiction. Your licensed accountant, CPA or chartered accountant remains responsible for review, advice and filing.
Case studies
Case studies are being prepared for publication
Each one requires written client clearance before it goes live, and that takes longer than writing the page. Ask for the relevant one on a call — we can walk you through it verbally under NDA today, with more operational detail than a published page would carry anyway.
Accounting & Taxation FAQ
Do you replace my accountant?
No, and you should be wary of anyone who says they do. We do the transactional and preparation work; your licensed accountant reviews, advises and files. Most clients find their accountant’s bill falls because the inputs arrive clean.
Which jurisdictions do you support?
Preparation and bookkeeping for US, UK and Canadian entities, plus Indian entities where a client has one. Filing and advice stay with your licensed professional in that jurisdiction.
How do you handle access to our bank?
Read-only or prepare-only, under a named user we can enumerate for you. Payment release stays with your authorised signatories. We will not accept an arrangement that gives an offshore team payment authority.
What if we are mid-year and the books are a mess?
A clean-up is scoped as a fixed-price project before any ongoing engagement starts. Quoting an ongoing rate against unknown historical mess is how these relationships fail in month three.
