The firm

One firm for every decision a Nepali business makes.

Veritas is a management consulting firm in Kathmandu. We take businesses from their first registration to their largest decisions: strategy, capital, transactions and tax, with the books and filings handled by the same team.

Our story

We started Veritas because the accounts were never the real problem.

Working with Nepali businesses as chartered accountants, we kept meeting the same situation. The books were filed and the taxes were paid, yet the owner still could not say which product made money, why cash was tight, or whether it was safe to expand.

The numbers existed. Nobody had gone into them. Reports described what happened and stopped there, leaving the owner to guess what to do next.

So we set up Veritas in Kathmandu to do the part that was missing: test the numbers, trace what is driving them, and give the owner a clear answer. Across the team’s practice we have advised 55+ businesses in 18+ sectors.

Every engagement is overseen by a chartered accountant, and we tell you at the first meeting if we are not the right fit.

How we work

We work on the questions that shape your results.

Every engagement starts from a defined business question, tests it against your own data, and ends in a recommendation management can act on. Each is led by a chartered accountant.

Tax filing, VAT, bookkeeping, payroll and company registration are handled in-house too, so our advisers work from the real numbers. See every service.

How an engagement runs

Four stages, from defining the question to implementing the answer.

  1. 01FrameWe define the business question, what success looks like, and the scope, timeline and fee, agreed in writing.
  2. 02DiagnoseWe test hypotheses against your records, contracts and numbers to establish the root cause.
  3. 03RecommendWe set out the options, the financial impact of each, and the course of action we recommend.
  4. 04ImplementWe work with your team on execution, including with lenders, investors or the IRD, until the matter is closed.

Our working principles

  • Evidence before opinionEvery conclusion traces back to your data, a contract or the law, and we show the analysis behind it.
  • Answer firstManagement gets a clear recommendation and next steps, without technical language to decode.
  • Scope and fee in writingWhat is included, how long it takes and what it costs are agreed before work starts.
  • Honest about fitIf we are not the right firm for the problem, we say so in the first call.

Principles

What we stand on.

  1. 01

    Clarity

    We tell clients what we actually find, not what's easiest to hear. Every engagement starts with an honest, evidence-based read of the current state, because a plan built on comfortable assumptions is already failing.

  2. 02

    Rigor

    Our recommendations are stress-tested against data, precedent, and Nepal's regulatory reality, not intuition alone. We are only as bold as the evidence allows, and we document every assumption so you can challenge it.

  3. 03

    Partnership

    We stay through implementation. Strategy without follow-through is a memo, not a result. We embed with your team, transfer capability, and measure ourselves on outcomes, not slide counts.

Commitments

How we commit to each engagement.

  1. 01

    Senior-led. Specialist when needed.

    A senior adviser stays on the engagement from the first call through to delivery, including the reviews and the decision meetings. Where a matter needs deeper technical expertise we bring in the right specialist, rather than staffing juniors against a partner's name.

  2. 02

    Transparent scope and fees

    Every proposal sets out the deliverables, the meeting frequency, the timeline, the assumptions and the fee before any work begins. If the work changes we re-scope together, so no invoice ever contains a surprise. Where we cannot help, we say so at the first meeting, not the last.

  3. 03

    Your capability, not our dependency

    We document the processes, train your people and leave behind reporting your team can run without us. We measure success by how little you need us afterwards, that is what brings clients back for the next problem.
