About the role
Legend of Toys is India's fastest-growing RC car brand, and we are building the finance function it needs. We want a CA with 5 to 7 years in audit or funding to own FP&A;, funding readiness, compliance and business planning end to end.
This is a hands-on role close to the founders: defend a number to an investor, walk an auditor through a schedule, and tell a business head why a SKU is losing money.
What you will own
FP&A; and business planning
- Build and maintain the annual operating plan, quarterly forecasts and a rolling 13-week cash flow model
- Run channel and SKU-level profitability across D2C and marketplaces, and partner with marketing, sales and ops on pricing, ROI and launches
- Publish a monthly MIS pack with revenue, margins, working capital and variance commentary the founders can act on
Funding and investor readiness
- Own the financial side of fundraising: models, KPI dashboards, investor reporting and data rooms
- Coordinate due diligence (financial, tax and legal) with advisors and investors, and close open items on time
- Keep the cap table, allotments, ESOPs and FEMA / FDI paperwork (including FIRC) clean and audit-ready
Compliance and audit
- Oversee compliance across GST, TDS, Income Tax, PF, ESI, Qualified Tax, Companies Act and ROC filings
- Lead statutory, tax and internal audit cycles end to end: schedules, auditor queries and timely sign-off
- Handle notices, assessments and correspondence with authorities and external consultants
Reporting, controls and treasury
- Own monthly, quarterly and annual closes under Ind AS / Indian GAAP, with books reconciliation-ready
- Strengthen internal controls and document SOPs across procurement, sales, payments and inventory
- Own cash planning, bank and credit-line relationships, and the vendor payment cycle
- Push automation of accounting workflows (Tally and any future ERP)
Team leadership
- Lead and mentor the finance team and external consultants, and set the review rhythm that keeps things from slipping
Who you are
Must have
- Chartered Accountant (CA)
- 5 to 7 years in audit (statutory, internal or tax, in a CA firm or Big 4) or in funding (fundraising, due diligence, investor reporting)
- Strong grasp of GST, TDS, Income Tax, Companies Act and Ind AS / Indian GAAP
- Strong financial modelling and advanced Excel; working knowledge of Tally
- Clear communication with founders, auditors and investors
Good to have
- Experience in D2C, e-commerce, consumer brands or multi-channel retail
- Exposure to a growth-stage startup, a funding round or an LDD / FDD process
- Experience with FEMA / FDI compliance, ESOPs or ROC filings
How you work
- Ownership mindset: a finance partner to the business, not just a controller
- Comfortable with pace and ambiguity, and quick to turn problems into closed items
What we offer
- Compensation: industry standard, based on experience and capability
- A seat at the table, working directly with the founders on business-defining decisions
- End-to-end ownership across FP&A;, funding, compliance and audit
- A high-trust culture where your work is visible and your impact is measurable
