Its services cover business registration, intellectual property, tax registrations and filings, legal documents, and accounting and compliance.
About the roleLegalWiz.in is hiring a Senior Accountant to work on our client account, an IT company in Ahmedabad. You will own the client’s full accounting cycle on Zoho Books: invoicing, payables and receivables, month-end and year-end close, and management reporting.

Success in this role means accurate books, invoices and payments that go out on time, a close that never slips, and MIS that the client’s management can act on.
