A boutique Chartered Accountancy practice where global experience meets genuine personal service.
Our Story
Gautam Bhat & Associates (GBA) is a Chartered Accountancy practice headquartered in Thane, Maharashtra. Founded by CA Gautam Bhat, the firm brings together deep technical expertise earned across Big 4 advisory, large Indian accounting firms, corporate leadership, and international engagements in New York City.
We work as genuine partners to our clients — whether a start-up seeking its first round of funding, a mid-size enterprise navigating compliance, or a listed company requiring independent assurance. Our philosophy is simple: deliver honest, actionable, and high-quality professional services every time.
GBA is not a firm that treats every engagement as a transaction. We invest in understanding your business, your sector, and your ambitions — and then bring the full weight of our experience and network to help you succeed.
"Our goal is not just compliance — it is to be a long-term strategic partner who helps your business grow with confidence."
Our Values
You get the rigour and methodologies of a Big 4 firm with the direct partner access and personal service that only a boutique practice can offer. Your files are never handed to a junior you've never met.
International exposure in the USA combined with deep experience across 10+ industry verticals gives GBA a contextual edge that narrowly focused firms simply cannot match.
Beyond numbers — GBA advises on strategy, marketing, governance, ESG and risk, making us a single trusted advisor for your entire business journey rather than a specialist silo.
A vast and active network of Venture Capital and Private Equity relationships gives growth-stage clients a meaningful advantage when entering fundraising conversations.
