Find the finance gaps before a bank, auditor, investor or customer does
The VPRP Finance Health Check is a paid 30-day review for promoter-led companies. We test the books, compliance, banking and contracts, verify explanations against records, and give management a findings report with a 90-day action plan.
When this is relevant
Situations that bring clients to us
- Monthly accounts close late or keep changing after review.
- The bank asks for statements or reconciliations that take weeks.
- GST, TDS, payroll, ROC and accounting sit with different people and no owner.
- An auditor, customer, lender or investor has raised gaps.
- Key finance knowledge sits with one employee.
- Investment, borrowing, a sale or diligence is expected in the next year.

Is this an audit?
No. It is a management review and does not replace a statutory, tax or internal audit unless separately engaged.
Will you visit our office or factory?
Yes. The location and number of visits are confirmed in the engagement letter.
Do you fix issues during the 30 days?
The review identifies and prioritises them. Urgent corrective action can be scoped separately.
