International Accounting and Taxation - United States and Australia
As businesses expand across borders, financial and tax obligations multiply in complexity. For Indian firms operating in the United States or Australia, and for US and Australian businesses with India operations or cross-border exposure, navigating two distinct regulatory ecosystems simultaneously demands a team that understands both jurisdictions - the standards, the compliance calendars, the tax treaties, and the reporting obligations.
United States of America (USA)
US Tax Return Preparation and Filing
We prepare and file US federal and state tax returns for individuals, partnerships, LLCs, S Corporations, and C Corporations - whether you are an Indian entrepreneur with a US entity, a non-resident alien with US-sourced income, or a US person with Indian financial interests.
IRS Compliance and Regulatory Filings
We manage FBAR (FinCEN 114), FATCA (Form 8938), Form 5471 for controlled foreign corporations, Form 5472 for foreign-owned US corporations, and other international information returns that carry significant penalties if missed or incorrectly filed.
US GAAP Accounting and Bookkeeping
We maintain books of account for US entities in accordance with US GAAP - transaction recording, bank reconciliations, accounts payable/receivable, payroll accounting, and preparation of financial statements aligned to US reporting standards.
Entity Formation and Structuring
We advise Indian businesses and entrepreneurs on the most appropriate US structure - Delaware LLC, Wyoming LLC, C Corporation, or other entity form - considering liability exposure, investor requirements, tax efficiency, and repatriation.
US-India Tax Treaty Application
We analyse DTAA provisions applicable to business profits, royalties, dividends, capital gains, or personal income, and ensure treaty benefits are correctly claimed in both jurisdictions.
Transfer Pricing Compliance
For related-party transactions between Indian and US entities, we prepare transfer pricing studies and contemporaneous documentation, ensuring intercompany pricing is defensible before both the IRS and the Indian Tax Department.
Payroll Tax Compliance
We handle payroll tax computations, federal and state payroll filings, W-2 and 1099 preparation, and employer compliance obligations under US federal and state law.
Pre-Immigration and Exit Tax Planning
We assist with pre-immigration tax planning under the US worldwide taxation system, and exit tax planning under IRC Section 877A for those relinquishing US citizenship or green card status.
Expatriate and Non-Resident Taxation
We file returns and advise US expatriates in India, Indian nationals on US work visas, and non-resident aliens with US income, covering foreign earned income exclusion (Form 2555) and foreign tax credit (Form 1116).
Withholding Tax and Cross-Border Payments (US)
We ensure withholding tax on dividends, interest, royalties, and technical service fees paid to or from the US is correctly deducted, deposited, and reported, applying treaty-reduced rates wherever available.
Outsourced Accounting Support for US CPA Firms
We work as an offshore accounting and tax processing partner for CPA firms in the United States, handling bookkeeping, tax return preparation, and financial statement work.
Currency, Repatriation, and FEMA Compliance (US)
