Job Title: Accounts Executive

Company: Pragati Defence

Location: Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh (on-site, factory-based)

Job Type: Full time, permanent

Probation: 3 months

About Pragati Defence

One of India's leading armour systems manufacturers. We make body armour, ballistic plates, helmets and platform armour for the Indian Army, Air Force, DRDO, special forces and police, and export to nine countries. We are one of very few Indian companies that make our own ballistic materials.

Why this role matters

What leaves our factory is worn by soldiers. The accounts desk is what keeps materials arriving, vendors paid on time and statutory filings clean — so production never stops for want of a document.

Purpose of the role

Keep Pragati's books, cash, Tally and ERP current and identical, and ensure no payment, bill or statutory paper is delayed for want of documentation.

Key responsibilities

- Post all transactions daily in Tally — purchases, sales, expenses, bank, cash and journal entries
- Update the daily cash, bank and petty cash balance in the company vault every working day before close, and flag any variance against the cash book immediately
- Maintain the cash book; manage petty cash within the sanctioned float with daily reconciliation
- Process vendor bills: verify against PO and GRN, apply correct GST and TDS, and route for approval
- Prepare payment requests as per approval limits; release nothing without written approval
- Keep the ERP and Tally identical — reconcile the two at every month-end
- Bank reconciliation monthly; follow up on unmatched items




- Prepare monthly statements, reconciliations and salary sheets in Excel
- Support GST, TDS, PF and ESI filings by supplying accurate registers and workings on time
- Maintain the stores–accounts interface: ensure every GRN has a matching bill and every bill a matching GRN
- Assemble documentation for bank loans, government schemes and audits as required
- Keep vendor master and bank details accurate; no changes without Finance approval

Authority limits

- No payment released without written approval as per limit
- No change to vendor master or bank details without Finance approval
- Petty cash held only up to the sanctioned float

Essential requirements

- B.Com or equivalent
- Hands-on daily Tally posting — you actually post entries, not supervise someone who does
- Cash handling and cash book discipline
- Working knowledge of GST and TDS on vendor bills
- Excel for statements, reconciliations and salary sheets

Desirable

- Factory or manufacturing accounts experience
- ERP entry and the stores–accounts interface
- Experience assembling documentation for bank loans or government schemes

Confidentiality

Financial data, vendor pricing, payroll and project documentation are confidential. An NDA is signed on joining. No company financial information is to be shared outside Pragati without written approval from the CEO or Head of Finance.

What we offer

- PF, ESI and statutory benefits as applicable

Pay: ₹10,000.00 - ₹26,000.00 per month

Benefits

- Provident Fund
