From our 25-acre farm in Talegaon to a thriving D2C store and retail presence across Pune, Mumbai, and Bangalore - we’re building an ecosystem that brings nature closer to homes, offices, and communities

• Assist the core finance team with data preparation for GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filings, ensuring zero discrepancies between the books and the government portals.
• Prepare and present monthly AR dashboards to the Finance Controller, highlighting collection metrics, DSO (Days Sales Outstanding), and key operational bottlenecks.
• Provide necessary documentation and schedules for internal and statutory audits.

4. Team Leadership & Process Improvement

• Manage, mentor, and train the AR team, setting clear KPIs and fostering a culture of accuracy and accountability.
• Identify opportunities to automate manual reconciliation processes and improve ERP utilization for faster month-end closing.
