3. GST & Income Tax: Sound and practical knowledge of GST and Income Tax laws, including return preparation, reconciliation, compliance, assessment-related matters and related documentation.

4. Analytical & Scrutiny Skills: Must possess a highly analytical and questioning approach, with an eye for detail. Should be capable of identifying discrepancies, unusual transactions, errors and potential compliance issues.
