Audit and accounting services in Sargodha
Sargodha produces most of Pakistan's kinnow, and its processing and grading plants work hard through a short winter export season. Dairy, agriculture and textile units round out the local economy.
Seasonal businesses need accounting that copes with big swings in stock, cash and staff. We plan audits and reviews around the season rather than against it.
Short export seasons and working capital
Processors finance a whole year's operations from a few months of exports. We prepare cash flow forecasts and audited statements that banks need for seasonal limits.
What do Sargodha businesses need from their accountants?
Seasonal export businesses
Fruit processors and exporters need records that match a short, intense export season.
Agricultural and business income
Separating farm income from processing and trading profits is important for correct taxation.

Tax and regulatory framework for Sargodha
Sargodha businesses register companies with SECP, file income tax and sales tax on goods with FBR, and account for sales tax on services with the Punjab Revenue Authority (PRA). Read more about compliance across Punjab or our tax advisory and FBR compliance service.

Questions from Sargodha clients
Can you help a kinnow exporter with bank finance?
Yes. We prepare audited statements, cash flow forecasts and certificates that banks require for seasonal export financing.
When is the best time to schedule an audit for a kinnow processor?
Usually after the export season ends, when stock is low and records are complete. We agree the timing in the engagement letter.
Do you advise Sargodha dairy businesses?
Yes. We help dairy and livestock businesses with records, tax registration and separating agricultural income.
Do I need to register with PRA if I provide services in Punjab?
If you provide taxable services in Punjab and exceed any applicable thresholds, registration with the Punjab Revenue Authority is required, separate from your FBR registration.
