- Ensure invoices are raised accurately and on time through Zoho Books.
- Maintain renewal calendars and billing-readiness checklists for customer subscriptions in Zoho Books and Chargebee, while commercial renewal decisions and pricing exceptions remain with the Account Owner/CRO.

4. Finance, Taxation & Compliance Coordination
- Coordinate with CA/Finance teams for GST, TDS,
taxation, and statutory documentation requirements, including GSTIN/PAN details, place-of-supply inputs, TDS certificates, and supporting records.
