SOC 1 attestation in Pune at a glance
Pune finance-and-accounting operations for overseas clients, such as payroll, accounts payable or reconciliation, produce the figures that client auditors rely on, so those auditors ask for a SOC 1 report. A SOC 1 examination gives the auditors of a service provider's clients comfort over controls such as payroll processing, claims handling, billing and transaction accuracy. National requirements and accreditation sit on the India page. Pune clients are served from Sterling's Mumbai office, which travels to Hinjewadi, Chakan, Ranjangaon and other sites as the work requires. The report is issued by an independent licensed CPA firm; Sterling prepares the control environment and evidence for the examination.

SOC 1 in Pune: questions clients ask
Which Pune providers are asked for SOC 1?
Pune providers running payroll, payables, receivables or reconciliation for clients abroad are asked by those clients' auditors for a report on controls relevant to financial reporting. The report is written by a licensed CPA firm, while Sterling helps prepare the controls and evidence.
What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2?
Type 1 reports look at whether controls are suitably designed on a given date, and Type 2 reports add tests of how they operated across a stated period. User auditors normally find Type 2 more useful, so many providers issue Type 1 first and Type 2 afterwards.
