More about Abhav Awasthi
Founder, Fintax Professionals | Taxation, Accounting & Management Consultant
I started Fintax Professionals in 2019, after having been in to various roles around taxation, accounting and compliance for over 6 years.
I help startup founders make more sense of their numbers and formulate strategies that make their businesses financially more viable and statutorily up-to-date.
I love to care about their businesses not just as a consultant but as a close stakeholder - making tax less taxing and accounting more accountable. I come to the table with not just quantitative numbers but underlying qualitative aspects as well.
I like to bring a flexible and chilled-out approach in the other-wise very rigid and monotonous work of taxation, accounting and compliance; keeping any pre-conceived notions out of the door.
I have a knack for developing result-oriented processes and value addition.
My team and I have been successful to retain 95% of our clients based out of Delhi NCR and Bangalore, so far. These clients includes those that have two-digit crores of revenue as well as those who are starting to build right from the scratch.
In between work - I can be found having, making, offering tea!
When off work, I like to have conversations about anything that is positive or can be turned around to be positive.
If any of the above, resonates with you – do hit me up with a connection request and let me know what brought you here.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."
