This CA quit his lucrative job as a Partner at a leading accounting firm in Canada to be a tech entrepreneur with Countable.co

• Hi, I am Atin Gupta a professionally trained Accountant from India and North America and now turned tech entrepreneur.
• The biggest goal of my life has always been to seek more and be more, because of this I kept moving on to newer jobs to learn newer things. I was basically chasing a never-ending tail!
• When I joined MNP, a leading accounting firm in Canada, I found the right place to grow. I became a partner in 2011 and the regional lead for Technology practice in the Toronto office.
• In 2019, after 13 years at MNP, I took a leap of faith, quit my job, and co-founded Countable. co – an online platform to make engagements simpler for small to medium-sized accounting firms. 
• Here is my story that goes all the way from Ludhiana, India to Toronto, Canada.

A brief look at my roots!

I hail from a city called Ludhiana in the state of Punjab, India.

My journey from the age of 11 has been nothing short of “an adventure”. My dad passed away when I was very young and my mom and stepdad raised my sister and me.

When it was time to make a decision on my career path, my mom was sure that accounting should be my subject in grades 11-12 with the intent to register for CA alongside. I got hooked on accounting and loved every minute of it and pursuing CA seemed to be a natural progression.
