Chartered Accountants · Karachi
Abdul Hafeez & Co. works with companies that run their operations on an ERP — choosing the system, designing the controls inside it, and handling the tax and compliance that follows. Two sectors, deliberately, rather than every sector in general.
Who we work with
Retail and pharmaceutical operations are regulated differently, taxed differently and run on different controls. Each is dealt with on its own terms rather than through a general services list.
Chains running an ERP and a point of sale, where stock, margin and every invoice are now reported in real time.
Manufacture and distribution sold through a trade that settles half its margin outside the invoice — in bonus stock, credit terms, discounts and credit notes.
What we do
The systems the business runs on, the tax that follows from what it sells, and the filing and bookkeeping that keep it in good standing. Most clients start with one and stay for the others.
Choosing the system, designing the controls inside it, and testing that they hold.
Both sides of the federal and provincial line, advised by one practice.
The recurring work that keeps an entity in good standing once the systems are in place.
The practice does not resell ERP or accounting software licences and takes no vendor commission, referral fee or paid placement. Implementation and migration work is paid for by the client, for the work done — so a recommendation against a system costs us nothing to make.
Who you work with

FCA · Principal of the practice
The practice is led by its principal. The file you open is the file he works on, and the person who answers the phone is the person who signs the advice.
Abdul Hafeez & Co., Chartered Accountants
EY, Deloitte and PwC are named here as former professional experience only. Abdul Hafeez & Co. is an independent practice: it is not a member firm of, affiliated with, in partnership with, endorsed by or authorised by any of them, and none of them is connected with the work described on this site.
How we work
Your file is handled by the principal, not passed down to a rotating junior.
Systems, tax and compliance under one roof, so nobody is coordinating between firms.
Scope and fees agreed in advance and in writing. A step that turns out not to be needed is dropped rather than billed.
Advice on system selection carries no vendor commission, so a recommendation against a system costs us nothing to make.
