AccountsGuru: A Chartered Accountant's One-Stop Compliance Portal for Singapore SMEs

AccountsGuru is the client-facing portal of The Number Crunchers Pte Ltd (TNC), a Singapore accounting firm with 19+ years in the industry, more than 500 satisfied clients served, and 35+ years of combined accounting experience across its team.

Founded by a Chartered Accountant

TNC was founded in 2006 by Arva Rangwala, who qualified as a Chartered Accountant on her first attempt and was quickly absorbed into the IRAS accounting pool before going on to build an illustrious career at KPMG. Rather than staying behind the scenes, Arva built AccountsGuru as an interactive portal so business owners could connect directly with a professional team for free advice on accounting, tax and corporate secretarial matters — no filters, no gatekeeping, with video-conferencing now available for anyone who wants to talk things through.

Arva describes her approach as personal rather than purely technical: taking a genuine interest in each client's business and staying personally reachable, a philosophy she says hasn't changed in 15+ years of practice. Outside of accounting, she's an active Toastmasters club committee member (a country-level finalist in the 2017 Toastmasters International Speech Contest) and an award-winning actor whose short films have appeared at regional festivals.

What AccountsGuru Covers

The firm's services span the full lifecycle of running a Singapore company. For businesses starting out, there's company incorporation with advice on the right structure and applicable grants or tax concessions, plus registered office address setup for companies that don't want to rent office space of their own, available at a nominal fee.

Once a company is running, corporate secretarial services keep documents filed and company records current under the Companies Act. Bookkeeping and accountancy services handle invoices, receipts and bank statements, with a chartered accountant reviewing the books and filing them on time, giving business owners an accurate picture of their financial position and profit and loss.

On the compliance side, AccountsGuru offers GST filing and compliance support, and tax planning and corporate tax filing aimed at helping clients optimise incentives and avoid missed deadlines. For companies pausing operations, there's dormant company management, and for those closing down entirely, striking-off services designed to avoid future legal problems. The firm also assists with Employment Pass and Dependant Pass LOC applications for businesses managing foreign hires.

What Clients Say

Google reviews verified by Trustindex point to a consistent theme: responsiveness and clarity, particularly around GST and compliance questions. Reviewers mention the team's understanding of cross-border compliance, quick turnaround on company setup, and a personal touch for small business owners navigating the Singapore tax system for the first time — several specifically credit Arva and her colleague Abbas for guidance that went beyond a standard client relationship.
