CA Services for Online Startups in India
N D Savla & Associates – Chartered Accountants for Digital & Internet-First Businesses
Online startups move fast. Revenues scale quickly, costs change monthly, and compliance is often an afterthought until notices arrive. From GST on digital services to investor reporting and cross-border payments, startups need a CA firm that understands the startup lifecycle, not just filings.
N D Savla & Associates provides specialised CA services for online startups, helping founders stay compliant, investor-ready, and financially clear from day one.
We work with SaaS companies, D2C brands, marketplaces, app-based businesses, content platforms, and internet-first startups across India.

GST on online services, subscriptions, and platforms
High marketing spends and cost tracking
Multiple payment gateways and reconciliation
