Advocate · Tax & Compliance
Available this weekTax and compliance advocate who turns Inland Revenue notices into a plan, not a panic.
Meera advises businesses and professionals on income tax, VAT, TDS and the annual compliance calendar at the Inland Revenue Department and the Office of the Company Registrar. She handles tax assessments and administrative reviews, and she has represented clients before the Revenue Tribunal in disputes over disallowed expenses and VAT credits.
She trained as a chartered accountant before qualifying as an advocate, which gives her an unusual ability to read both the ledger and the statute. Small and mid-sized companies make up most of her practice, and she runs a quarterly compliance briefing for the firm's corporate clients.
Approach
Meera works from the calendar backwards: she maps every filing deadline for the client's fiscal year, then builds the record-keeping needed to meet each one. When a notice arrives, she reads the assessing officer's reasoning line by line before deciding whether to comply, clarify or contest.
