M S Meharwade Associates Chartered Accountants

Our office is situated in Hubli, right across from the Basav Vanbabaleshawar Compound. We are in the Shivanandkbelavigio C Mskalburgi building, which is a bit of a mouthful to say, but people around here know it. As chartered accountants, we spend most of our time staring at numbers and filing papers. It isn’t the most exciting work for everyone, but it’s what we’ve been doing at M S Meharwade Associates for years. The office is usually quiet, except for the sound of calculators and someone typing away on a keyboard. We have files stacked up on almost every flat surface, especially when tax season comes around. It gets pretty hectic then. We don't have a big corporate lobby with leather chairs. It’s just a plain room where we sit down with people and look over their accounts. People from around Hubli come to us because they need someone to sort out their finances without making it too complicated. We try to explain things in plain English so nobody gets confused by all the tax laws. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to wait a bit, but we always get back to it. We aren't a huge firm with hundreds of employees. It’s just a small team of us trying to keep the books straight for our clients. We stay focused on the details and try to get every decimal point in the right place so there are no problems with the filings.
