01About the course
What you will learn in Business Accounting & Taxation
Business Accounting and Taxation is a job-oriented programme that covers the everyday work of an accounts department in an Indian company. You start with bookkeeping basics – journal, ledger, trial balance and final accounts – and then do the same work in TallyPrime. From there you learn GST, TDS, income tax, advance tax, ESI and EPF, payroll, Advanced Excel and MIS reporting. The longer Masters programme also adds Gulf VAT and SAP S/4HANA Financial Accounting.
This page is for learners outside Vellore, Katpadi and Ranipet – NRIs, professionals in the Gulf and other countries, and students elsewhere in India who want Business Accounting & Taxation taught live by a trainer.
Basic computer use and basic arithmetic are enough. A commerce background helps, but the course begins with accounting fundamentals, so non-commerce graduates can also follow it.
