I prepared VAT returns, calculated TDS/VDS, and managed government treasury challans.

I assisted in calculating the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) and identifying areas to reduce operational waste.

My data-driven reports helped senior management make informed budgetary decisions. Audit Coordination: Acted as a key point of contact during internal and external annual audits.
