Accounting delivery partner · Australia
Outsourced accounting delivery for Australian accounting firms and Australian businesses, from a dedicated team in India.
Cadence gives Australian practices white-label capacity for bookkeeping, BAS workings, STP payroll processing and year-end accounts production, and gives Australian businesses a finance function without hiring. Your software, your chart of accounts, your review, your lodgement.
Australian practices carry a calendar with no quiet quarter: monthly and quarterly BAS, superannuation guarantee, FBT in May, the July to October individual return season and the lodgement program running into the new year. Cadence is a dedicated team in India that takes the preparation work inside your Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks file, so your accountants can review, advise and lodge instead of keying transactions.
We are white-label preparation capacity. Your practice controls client-facing work and remains responsible for review and lodgment. Agree named access, the working-paper standard, a cover note and the no-contact boundary in writing. Check client terms, professional duties and privacy obligations for any subcontracting disclosure before sharing records.
Small and growing businesses can scope an outsourced bookkeeping and reporting function with Cadence: regular books, supplier and customer reconciliations, BAS and payroll workings, and a management pack on the schedule agreed in writing. Your accountant or registered agent keeps the year-end, the tax advice and the lodgements. We work alongside that firm.
Capacity and handover dates are agreed against the calendar before work starts. The interactive My Cadence tracker turns standard dates into an illustrative twelve-month list; confirm dates that depend on your ATO or agent records.

These are standard planning dates. Eligible online BAS lodgers and registered-agent clients may have different dates; weekends and public holidays can also change a due date. Confirm the date in the ATO account or with the registered agent before lodging.
India is four and a half hours behind Australian Eastern Standard Time and five and a half behind daylight time. We agree the live call window, response times and batch handovers with each Australian firm or business before work starts.
Cadence is not a registered tax agent or BAS agent with the Tax Practitioners Board, is not a CPA Australia or Chartered Accountants ANZ practice, and does not lodge anything with the ATO or ASIC. We prepare; a registered agent or the business's own accountant reviews, advises and lodges. Set that division of work in the written proposal before work starts. The agent or accountant remains responsible for its own registration and supervision duties and the work it lodges.
Tools may include Xero and Xero Payroll, MYOB Business and AccountRight, QuickBooks Online, Dext, Hubdoc and KeyPay (Employment Hero Payroll). Confirm the software, access permissions and where files will be stored in the written scope before sharing client records.
Questions from Australia

We prepare BAS workings, financial statements, payroll workings and management accounts for a registered agent or the business's own accountant to review and lodge.
Yes. We prepare reconciled GST, PAYG withholding and PAYG instalment workings for each BAS, and STP pay-event and finalisation figures from your payroll software. Lodgement and any advice on treatment stay with the registered agent.
Tell us which software you use. We confirm compatibility, user access and working-paper handling before a trial starts.
India is four and a half hours behind Australian Eastern Standard Time and five and a half behind daylight time. We agree the live-call window, response times and handover schedule before work starts.
We agree a trial batch, fee, review points and next steps in the written scope. A BAS group, year-end files or recurring bookkeeping can be used to test the handover before a wider engagement.
We can prepare superannuation guarantee schedules for each pay run. From 1 July 2026, employers pay on payday and contributions generally must reach the fund within seven business days, subject to extended timeframes in some cases. Payment and employer decisions stay with you or your client. See ATO guidance.
