FINANCEOUTLOOKINDIA19AUGUST, 2026What makes CA Amol Mishra's advisory approach distinctive and highly effective is his dual perspective. Along with extensive experience in taxation, litigation, business structuring and compliance, he has led the tax domain of NJRS ­ National Judiciary Reference System, a flagship project of the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT).His hands-on experience in handling tax assessments and appeals for clients, combined with his work alongside senior tax officials during the NJRS project, has given him rare insight into both the taxpayer's position and the department's approach.This blend of technical expertise, litigation experience and regulatory understanding enables Nine O Six Advisory to help businesses treat tax strategy not just as compliance, but as a growth engine.Strengthening Governance for Sustainable GrowthAmol believes the role of compliance has changed significantly over the last decade. "Earlier, compliance was often viewed as something businesses completed because the law required it. Today, compliance directly influences how banks, investors, customers, vendors and other stakeholders evaluate an organisation."Increasing digitisation and greater regulatory visibility have made governance standards more important than ever before. Nine O Six Advisory therefore helps clients establish structured compliance frameworks through clearly defined responsibilities, review mechanisms, compliance calendars, documentation controls and periodic health checks."The consequences are rarely limited to penalties or interest. Compliance records increasingly influence funding opportunities, investor confidence, business relationships and overall credibility." Alongside compliance advisory, the firm also works with clients on governance frameworks, financial controls, reconciliations, approval mechanisms and management reporting structures designed to support disciplined and sustainable growth.A Boutique Firm Focused on Long-Term ImpactWhile Nine O Six Advisory has expanded considerably since its inception, the firm has consciously retained its boutique advisory model."We have never believed in taking up every assignment that comes our way. Before accepting an engagement, we spend time understanding the client's objectives, expectations and growth plans. We want to be certain that we can create meaningful value."Rather than limiting its role to recommendations, the firm remains closely involved through implemen-tation, monitoring and review stages to ensure that ad-visory translates into measurable business outcomes.Since its inception, Nine O Six Advisory has supported more than 250 startups and MSMEs, provided Virtual CFO and strategic finance support to over 250 businesses, facilitated business finance exceeding 450 crore, enabled clients to secure more than 50 crore under government incentive schemes and delivered more than 200 customised FinTech and business process solutions. For Amol, however, the firm's greatest achievements cannot be measured solely by numbers."The milestones we value most are the businesses that have become investment-ready, the organisations that have moved towards system-driven decision-making and the entrepreneurs who have greater confidence because they have stronger foundations in place."Looking ahead, Nine O Six Advisory plans to deepen its capabilities across management consulting, process excellence, governance advisory, strategic finance and technology-enabled transformation, with a long-term vision of becoming one of India's most trusted boutique advisory firms and helping ambitious businesses build stronger, smarter and more sustainable enterprises.
