The work, and where it runs
Bookkeeping runs on Zoho Books, in the cloud, on your instance. That matters more than it sounds: you are not waiting on a monthly file from someone else's desktop, and you can open the ledger yourself on any day of the month.
The scope covers the recurring back-office cycle — recording transactions, raising and issuing invoices, following up receivables, reconciling bank and payment accounts, and closing the month with reporting you can act on.
Payroll and accounting both run on established cloud platforms with access controls, and data is handled in line with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 — collected only for the purpose it was given for, access-restricted, and covered by confidentiality undertakings.
