Twenty-Four Years ofAdvisory Practice
Established in 2002, Jain Poddar & Co. has grown from a two-partner practice in Ranchi to a four-partner firm serving clients across Jharkhand.
From Two Partners to a Full-Spectrum Practice
Jain Poddar & Co. was founded in 2002 by CA. Akhil Poddar and CA. Uttam Jain, both of whom cleared the CA and CS examinations in the same year. Their conviction was clear: Ranchi deserved a firm that could match the technical depth of any metro practice.
Over the years, CA. Rahul Saraf (2007) and CA. Anish Agarwal (2016) joined as partners, each bringing distinct expertise. The firm expanded to Ramgarh and built a practice spanning sixteen verticals.
Today, our client relationships — many spanning over fifteen years — are built on accurate work, honest counsel, and consistent availability.
