ClearTax (now “Clear”) is fantastic if you want to file your own ITR or run e-invoicing at enterprise scale. It is less suited to a founder who wants the filing handled, the deadlines tracked, and a real CA on call. That is what we do.
Why customers switch
CAs do the work, not you
ClearTax’s flagship products are DIY first — ITR, e-invoicing, ITC reconciliation. CA-assisted is a paid add-on, often ₹3,999+ for capital-gains cases. Every plan we sell is CA-led from the start, with a named expert.
One bill instead of three
ClearTax tends to price ITR, e-invoicing, e-waybill, and TDS as separate SaaS subscriptions. Our flat monthly fee bundles GST returns, TDS returns, ROC compliance and notice handling.
Compliance calendar tied to a person, not a notification
ClearTax sends you reminders. We send you a CA who has already started the filing — you sign the document at the end.
Direct assignment migration from Clear
Free migration in 5-7 working days. We pull your historical filings, reconcile them against 26AS / 2A / 2B, and surface gaps before they become notices.
