Testimonials
Here's what they say about working with us..
Talk to EaseUp's Virtual CFO team about your steel, textile, sago, or engineering business in Salem. Get a clear, no-obligation view of where you stand.
A full-time CFO in India typically costs Rs 30-75 lakh a year. That is impractical for most Salem manufacturing and trading businesses. EaseUp's Virtual CFO engagements usually range from about Rs 40,000 to Rs 2,00,000 per month. The price depends on your turnover, transaction volume, and number of entities. It also depends on whether you need ongoing support or focused help. That focused help can cover fundraising or compliance clean-up. A small Salem sago or textile unit needing MIS and compliance sits at the lower end. A larger steel or engineering business raising capital sits higher. You get a senior finance team for a fraction of one full-time salary. The exact scope and price are agreed after a free 30-minute consultation.
