## DIRECT TAXATION (MUST HAVE)

- Monthly TDS computation, deposit and section/rate validation at invoice booking across 194C, 194J, 194H, 194I, 194Q and 195.
- Quarterly eTDS returns (26Q / 27Q) reconciled to books and Form 27A before filing; Forms 16A; clearance of TRACES defaults and correction statements.
- Section 195 analysis on cross-border payments — treaty relief, beneficial ownership, PE exposure; TRC and Form 10F collation; Forms 15CA / 15CB with the bank and consultant.
- Quarterly advance tax under Sections 208–211, incorporating intercompany true-ups, RSU perquisite cost and expected disallowances.
- Corporate return (ITR-6) and tax audit (Form 3CD): Section 40(a) disallowance tracking, Section 43B and 43B(h) MSME testing, book profit to taxable income reconciliation.
- Transfer pricing support for the cost-plus TNMM arrangement — Form 3CEB, Local File, benchmarking refresh, validation of the markup cost base.
- Current and deferred tax under Ind AS 12; quarterly ASC 740 provision pack input for US reporting. Notice and e-proceedings responses; uncertain tax position log.

## INDIRECT TAXATION (MUST HAVE)

- GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filed within statutory timelines with a documented review trail.
- Monthly GSTR-2B versus books ITC reconciliation with ageing of unmatched credit, vendor follow-up and application of Section 16(2)(aa) and 16(2)(ba); tracking of ITC availed, deferred and lapsed.
- Rule 42 / 43 reversals and Section 17(5) blocked credit; reverse charge on import of services, legal and GTA.

## FIXED ASSETS MANAGEMENT (GOOD TO HAVE)

- Ownership of the fixed asset register in NetSuite FAM under dual-book configuration — Primary (IGAAP) and Secondary (US GAAP).
- Consistent capitalisation policy across both books, including tracking of deliberate GAAP divergences where a category is expensed under US GAAP but capitalised and depreciated under Indian GAAP.
- Monthly depreciation runs in both books — Schedule II lives for IGAAP, group policy lives for US GAAP — with a book-to-book reconciliation and the divergence explained.
- Monthly and annual roll-forward with control totals (gross block, accumulated depreciation, net block, asset count) tied to the GL with no unexplained differences.
- CWIP tracking, asset tagging, periodic physical verification, disposals and retirements with gain or loss accounting; capex monitored against budget and controlled through the PO-to-capitalisation cycle.
- Block-of-assets and WDV computation under Section 32, including additional depreciation where eligible, reconciled to book depreciation for the deferred tax working. Lease assessment and related accounting inputs for each book.

## CLOSE, AUDIT AND CONTROLS (GOOD TO HAVE)

- Month-end close for all tax and fixed asset GL accounts, including balance sheet reconciliations for TDS receivable and payable, GST input and output, and tax provisions.
- Tax and fixed asset schedules for the statutory, tax and TP audits, with first-line response to auditor queries.
- Ownership of the India compliance calendar to a zero-late-filing standard, with the tax and fixed asset control environment documented to a standard that supports external review.

## AI-NATIVE WAYS OF WORKING (GOOD TO HAVE)

- Use AI tooling in the daily workflow for reconciliation triage, first-draft notice responses, statutory research and variance narratives — with the output always verified, owned and signed off by the individual.
- Build reusable assets rather than one-off outputs: standardized prompts, templates and scripts for the GSTR-2B match, the quarterly TDS return quality check and the monthly depreciation variance commentary.
- Identify which parts of the compliance calendar are genuinely automatable and build those improvements with the Site Controller. Apply sound confidentiality judgment — no employee PII or unmasked PAN into unapproved tools.
