Built on Integrity. Driven by Precision. Committed to Your Growth.
We combine decades of regulatory expertise, international financial standards, and modern technology to guide businesses through complex economic landscapes.
Who We Are
Altaf Hussain & Co. is a multidisciplinary financial advisory, taxation, audit, and corporate consultancy firm. Headquartered in Pakistan, we provide strategic, end-to-end financial stewardship to private corporations, publicly listed entities, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), family-owned businesses, and foreign branch offices.
In an increasingly scrutinized regulatory environment, businesses cannot afford guesswork in their financial governance. Our firm acts as an essential extension of your leadership team—ensuring strict compliance with the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP), provincial revenue authorities (PRA, SRB, KPRA, BRA), and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Our Foundation & Philosophy
Founded under the leadership of Altaf Hussain, our practice was established on a single core principle: professional advisory must be proactive, strictly ethical, and commercially viable.
What began as a specialized tax and accounting practice has grown into a comprehensive corporate consultancy. Over the years, we have guided hundreds of organizations through complex corporate restructuring, contentious tax disputes, multi-million-rupee statutory audits, cross-border transactions, and modern cloud accounting transformations.
