Hire an Accountant with 1–3 years of Experience

A company’s books end to end — monthly close, GST and TDS returns, payables and receivables. Typical work at this band includes run the monthly close; file GST and TDS returns; manage payables and receivables. Works from a weekly priority list rather than daily instructions. Needs guidance on trade-offs and on anything cross-team, not on the craft itself.

As an indicative market range, ₹3.2–5.5 LPA CTC — roughly ₹27,000 to ₹46,000 a month before deductions. Pay varies with city, company size, industry and the candidate’s current CTC; metros and funded product companies usually pay towards the top of the range. This is a guide, not MyInternships.in platform data.

Focus on end-to-end ownership of a close, filing or model. A practical that works well: a month-end close case seeded with errors to find and fix. This is the band where titles are least reliable. Ask for specifics — what they personally owned, shipped or closed — and test that ownership in a practical exercise rather than trusting the résumé wording.

Commonly 30–60 days; in IT services 60–90 days is normal. Counter-offers from the current employer are frequent at this band, so keep the candidate warm through the notice period. Productive on real work in two to four weeks once they have access and context.

Most come from B.Com/M.Com graduates, CA, CS and CMA candidates (qualified and inter), and MBA-finance graduates. Describe the entity size and the scope — books, compliance, audit, FP&A. On MyInternships.in you can post the role free and reach 63,000+ registered candidates and 45,000+ resumes on file; the platform is strongest at the entry and early-career end.

Hire at 1–3 years when the work is well defined and someone senior can set direction; hire at 3–5 years when the person must own decisions, design the approach and guide others. At 3–5 years the indicative range rises to ₹5–8.5 LPA, so be clear about which of those you actually need.
