The firm

A practice built around files that can be opened.

Lutfar Rahman & Co. is a professional accountancy practice in Dhaka, Bangladesh. We work as Certified General Accountants: recording, reporting, tax, VAT, and the advice that follows from ledgers rather than from slogans.

Name and standing

Who we are

The firm’s name is Lutfar Rahman & Co. The short mark is LRC. The principal is Md. Lutfar Rahman, holding the credentials FCGA, ITP.

Certified General Accountant is a professional designation of the Institute of Certified General Accountants of Bangladesh (ICGAB), a body established with the approval of the Ministry of Commerce. Fellowship (FCGA) denotes a member in that tradition. Income Tax Practitioner (ITP) status allows representation on income-tax matters within the bounds of that appointment.

We do not print licence numbers, TIN, BIN or a street address on this site until those particulars are confirmed from the firm’s own records. Accuracy is a professional obligation; marketing is not an excuse to invent them.

How we work

Engagements start with a written scope: the entity, the period, the deliverable, the fee basis, and the documents we will need. We will decline work that requires us to sign what we have not seen, or to issue a type of report reserved by law for another profession (in particular, statutory company audit opinions that require a practising chartered accountant).

Confidentiality is assumed. Working papers stay in the practice. We do not use client names in marketing.

Who we serve

Private companies, proprietorships, professional firms, project and donor-funded units, and owner-managers who have outgrown informal books. Dhaka is the seat; remote files are accepted where the documents can travel.

Values we actually use

Not a poster. A working rule.

Evidence first

A figure without a voucher is a rumour. We would rather a late close than a decorative one.

Independence of mind

Advice that only confirms the owner’s preferred profit is not advice. We say the awkward thing in the room, then put it in the letter.

Proportion

An SME does not need a listed-company manual. It needs the few controls that stop cash, VAT and payroll coming apart.
