Rathi & Malani, Chartered Accountants

You can find us at the Twin Bungalows in Laxmi Nagar, right on Gorakshan Road in Akola. We are chartered accountants and this is where we do all our work. Being near the New Power House makes it easy for people to explain where we are located. Akola can get incredibly hot, so our office is a bit of a refuge from the sun most of the year. We have stacks of files everywhere because that is just the nature of this job. We handle things like audits and tax stuff for locals and businesses around Maharashtra. It isn’t a glamorous job, but it is necessary. We work at our own pace but we try to keep up with the deadlines that the government sets. The office is in a residential-feeling area which makes it feel a bit more relaxed than a high-rise building. We know the people around Laxmi Nagar and it’s a good community to be part of. We don't use any fancy talk or marketing slogans. We just sit at our desks, use our calculators, and try to make sense of the financial mess people sometimes bring to us. It’s a lot of checking and re-checking. We have been at this location for a while and we don’t plan on moving. It’s just us, some computers, and a lot of paper in these bungalows. It is a solid place to work every single day.
