Who I Am
A Trusted Financial Partner
I am CA Karthik Kukunuru, a Chartered Accountant and Member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). I founded Karthik Kukunuru & Associates (Firm Reg. No. 025553S) in Hyderabad in 2021 with one clear goal — to make finance simple, transparent, and growth-oriented for every client.
In a short span, I have served 1000+ clients — from salaried individuals filing their first ITR, to growing businesses managing complex GST structures, to early-stage startups raising their first round of funding. This hands-on exposure has sharpened my ability to deliver not just compliance support, but genuinely strategic financial guidance tailored to each situation.
I believe a Chartered Accountant should be more than a seasonal service provider. I aim to be a year-round financial confidant — whether it is structuring a tax-efficient business model, guiding a founder through DPIIT recognition, or helping a business owner understand their own P&L. I am deeply invested in the financial well-being of every person I work with.
