As a 75-year-old Indian accounting firm, how does the firm manage to stay relevant in this new era of technology and startups?

Transformation is not new to T.R. Chadha & Co., a company that has been operating since 1946. We have adapted and evolved alongside the growth and development of the Indian economy.

If you want to continue to grow further and evolve, it is important not to resist change. We at TRC have been changing and evolving.

Articles are equipped with the technology; we are also adapting ourselves to the technology and doing a lot of technological upgrades so that we are in a position to execute much smarter, faster, and more accurately.
