Turnover Certificate Services - Overview

📌 TL;DR - Turnover Certificate Services at a Glance

A Turnover Certificate is a CA-issued document confirming your business's annual turnover based on ITR, GST Returns, or Audited Financials. Only a practicing CA with full-time ICAI Certificate of Practice can issue it. UDIN is mandatory since 1 February 2019. It is needed for bank loans, government tenders, MSME registration, current account opening, visa applications, and export-related purposes. Patron Accounting issues it starting at INR 1,499.

A Turnover Certificate in India is a CA-certified document that officially verifies your business's annual revenue. Banks require it for loan approvals, governments for tender eligibility, MSME portals for registration benefits, and visa authorities as financial proof. Issued exclusively by practicing Chartered Accountants registered with ICAI, every certificate must carry a UDIN - a mandatory 18-digit identifier verifiable online.

Getting a proper turnover certificate prevents rejection, delays, and legal complications across all institutional use cases. Patron Accounting LLP provides end-to-end turnover certificate services with ICAI-registered CAs across Pune, Mumbai, Delhi (Gurugram), and Hyderabad.

What is a Turnover Certificate in India?

A Turnover Certificate is a formal document issued by a practicing Chartered Accountant that officially certifies a business entity's total annual revenue (turnover) for one or more financial years, based on verified financial records.

The certificate is issued on the CA firm's letterhead and confirms that the stated turnover figures are consistent with the entity's Income Tax Returns (ITR), GST Returns, or Audited Financial Statements - whichever applies. It is distinct from an ITR acknowledgement (which is a tax-filing record) and from audited financial statements (which are comprehensive reports) - a turnover certificate is a specific targeted attestation for a stated purpose such as a bank loan or tender application.

In India, the financial year runs from 1 April to 31 March. Turnover certificates are typically issued for one year, two years, or three years depending on the institution's requirement. UDIN - Unique Document Identification Number - is an 18-digit code that every CA must generate on the ICAI portal for each certificate issued. It allows any institution to verify the certificate's authenticity at udin.icai.org.

Key Terms for Turnover Certificate:

UDIN - Unique Document Identification Number - 18-digit code mandatory on all CA certificates since 1 February 2019. Each UDIN is unique to one document and verifiable at udin.icai.org.

FRN - Firm Registration Number - ICAI-assigned number for the CA firm, printed on every certificate alongside the CA's membership number.

CoP - Certificate of Practice - only CAs holding a full-time CoP from ICAI can issue certificates and generate UDIN.

ITR - Income Tax Return - primary document cross-checked when certifying turnover.

GSTIN - GST Identification Number - GST Returns linked to GSTIN are used as secondary source for GST-registered entities.

Our Process

6-Step Process to Get a Turnover Certificate

From document collection to UDIN-stamped certificate delivery - our ICAI-registered CA team handles everything. A CA who issues a false or misleading certificate is liable for professional misconduct under Section 22 of the Chartered Accountants Act, 1949. Using a forged or false turnover certificate to obtain a bank loan constitutes fraud under Section 420, IPC, 1860. All certificates must have a valid UDIN per ICAI regulations effective 1 February 2019.

Step 1

Identify Purpose and Years Required
