In the early 2000s, the Indian accounting industry was largely fragmented, characterized by traditional practices, limited technological adoption, and a skilled but not globally competitive workforce. The industry, while significant in size, lacked the dynamism needed to compete on the international stage, having to deal with the complexity of cross-border taxation that significantly emphasizes exchange rates, tax variances, adherence to multiple reporting and compliance standards, accounting data consolidation, tracking expense accounts and report generation, among other tasks. However, over the years, with accounting firms continuing to evolve by adopting & learning the intricacies of cross-border accounting and taxation, while also integrating AI and automated technologies, there’s been a notable evolution within the global taxation and accounting industry.

EISNERAMPER India is one such firm that stands tall as a testament to this promising development in the accounting and taxation field. EISNERAMPER is one of the fastest-growing professional services firms in the world and one of the top 20 accounting firms in the U.S. EISNERAMPER India is a wholly owned subsidiary of Eisner Advisory Group LLC. Today, the company offers a comprehensive set of accounting, audit, tax, advisory, outsourced accounting, and compliance services to large enterprises, privately owned companies, governmental entities, and high-net-worth individuals across industries as diverse as financial services, healthcare, law, life sciences, manufacturing & distribution, not-for-profit, real estate, sports & entertainment, and technology.

No doubt, the accounting and taxation market is brimming with oppor -tunities with the expansion of several Global Capability Centers (GCCs) across the country. However, the convergence of access to knowledge, opportunities for transformation, regulatory challenges, economic obstacles, and social issues raises critical questions that clients must continually address. Hence, in tandem with its client service initiatives, the company has also focused on building shared services that support global functions from India.
