What is forensic accounting?

Forensic accounting applies accounting, data analysis and investigation techniques to find, quantify and document financial wrongdoing. The output is evidence, not just an opinion.

When do businesses need a forensic investigation?

Common triggers are suspected employee or vendor fraud, diversion of funds by a partner or director, a whistle-blower complaint, a lender's forensic audit, a shareholder dispute, and an insolvency professional's review of avoidance transactions (preferential, undervalued, extortionate or fraudulent transactions under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016).

How do we investigate?

We secure the data first, then analyse ledgers, bank statements and system logs with data analytics, test vendor and employee master data, trace fund flows and interview people involved. Electronic records relied on in court need a certificate under section 63 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, so we keep a chain of custody from the start.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a forensic report accepted in court?
It can be relied on as expert evidence. Electronic records need a certificate under section 63 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, and we preserve the chain of custody for that reason.
Is the investigation confidential?
Yes. We work under an engagement letter with confidentiality terms and report only to the person or body that appointed us.
Which offices deal with forensic accounting for a business in Borivali East?
Company-law and insolvency matters for companies here go to the NCLT Mumbai Bench, and writ petitions to the Bombay High Court.
Do you also handle forensic accounting for businesses near Borivali East?
Yes. We also work with businesses in Mandapeshwar, Gorai, Borivali West, Dahisar and Kandivali East and elsewhere in Mumbai, on the same terms and online.
Do I need to visit your office from Borivali East?
No. We serve Borivali East from our Mumbai office at Workafella, Goregaon West. Documents are shared securely online, filings are signed with a digital signature, and meetings are by video or at our office by appointment. Call +91 99622 60333 or email support@virtualauditor.in.
I suspect fraud. How can the issue be assessed confidentially and evidence preserved?
Keep the circle small: involve only the people who must know, and bring in legal counsel early. Do not confront the suspected person before evidence is secure. Preserve evidence first: take copies of the accounting system and emails, keep devices and logs, and record a chain of custody, so the evidence can be relied on later. A Certified Fraud Examiner then scopes the allegation, tests transactions with data analysis and document review, interviews in the right order, and reports facts, not conclusions of guilt. Statutory duties may apply, such as the auditor’s duty to report fraud under section 143(12) of the Companies Act. We start with a confidential scoping discussion and an engagement letter that sets the access we need.
