What finance and business leaders say about working with us
"Our monthly close used to take three weeks. FOGS closed it in five days and gave us a cash flow view we'd never had before."
"Their Virtual CFO team built our investor MIS from scratch and walked us through due diligence for our seed round without a single scramble."
"GST across four states used to be our biggest risk. It's now the one thing on our finance calendar we genuinely don't worry about."
A finance team built by people who have actually closed the books
FOGS Consultants was founded to close a simple gap: most growing Indian businesses need serious accounting, tax and finance expertise long before they can justify hiring a full internal finance team. We became that team — on retainer, on demand, and fully accountable for what we deliver.
FOGS Consultants works with startups, SMEs, MSMEs, factories, hospitals, retail businesses, educational institutions, NGOs and multinational corporates across India. Our consultants have sat inside finance, audit and operations teams before advising them — which is why our recommendations are built to survive an actual GST reconciliation or a statutory audit, not just a proposal deck.
We operate as an extension of your finance function: close enough to understand your business and cash position, independent enough to tell you what the numbers actually say.
Our Mission
To give every Indian business — regardless of size — access to accounting and finance expertise that is accurate, compliant and genuinely useful for decision-making.
Our Vision
To be the finance partner businesses keep for the long run, trusted with the same weight as their statutory auditor.
Leadership Approach
Understand the business first, then build the finance systems that fit it. Compliance is the floor, sound decision-making is the goal.
What guides every engagement
Accuracy
Every figure is reconciled before it reaches you — we don't hand over numbers we haven't checked.
Integrity
We tell clients what the numbers and the law actually say, even when it's inconvenient.
Confidentiality
Financial data is handled under strict access controls — your numbers stay your numbers.
Rigour
Every filing and report is checked against current law, not last year's process.
How an engagement typically unfolds
Discovery & Financial Health Check
We review your books, filings and financial processes to map exactly where the risk, gaps and opportunities sit.
Roadmap & Scope
A prioritised plan — what needs correcting immediately, what can be phased, and what ongoing support looks like.
Implementation
Chart of accounts, accounting systems, payroll and compliance filings are set up and taken over or run on your behalf.
Ongoing Partnership
A dedicated relationship manager keeps you ahead of filing deadlines, regulatory changes and reporting needs.
