Four decades of tax, compliance and advisory for Mumbai's businesses and families - a legacy carried forward.
One desk. One lawyer. 1985. That is how it began at Bhayander - with a stubborn belief that tax practice is about people, not paperwork. Today that desk has become two offices, that one man a team of 15+, and that first client a family of 1000+ businesses and individuals across Mumbai - who still receive exactly what the first one did: personal attention.
The work has grown - income tax, GST, audit, legal drafting, investments - but the principle has not: minimise taxes, manage growth, never compromise on ethics. A network of professionals across India keeps our clients a step ahead; a promise made in 1985 keeps them with us.

It began with one desk and a lawyer's curiosity about tax law. Ashok M. Khakhar founded the firm at Bhayander in 1989 and grew it the only way he knew - by treating every client's problem as his own. Four decades later, his counsel remains the firm's compass, and his standard of personal attention the benchmark every engagement must meet.
The next generation, carrying the same promise with new tools. A lawyer and tax strategist across GST, income tax, structuring and litigation, Rinav served as President of the Malad Chamber of Tax Consultants (2025-26) and is Founder & Vice President of CGPI - and a leading voice on AI and technology in the tax profession, bringing tomorrow's methods to a four-decade-old promise.
The firm's quality gate. A Fellow Chartered Accountant, Nidhi anchors audit, assurance and review - bringing rigour and precision to every engagement. Nothing leaves the firm without meeting her standard, and that is exactly how clients like it.
Eighteen years running Accounts & GST - still the first person everyone turns to.
Three years in Accounts & GST - accurate, systematic, and always in the right file.
Two years in Accounts & GST. Says little. Delivers everything.
A year into Accounts & GST - first to volunteer, last to give up.
Accounts & Income Tax - hand him something new, he'll master it by Friday.
Finance & Income Tax - asks "why" until the numbers confess.
TDS & Income Tax - proof that TDS and cheerfulness can coexist.
Income Tax & department work - the smile that gets files moving.
Office administration - runs the place like clockwork, with a laugh.
The broking firm's explorer - decades in the markets, still discovering.
Broking firm veteran. "Kaam batao sir - ho jayega." And it always does.

Every GST notice we've received, they've handled before we could worry about it. That peace of mind is the real service.
