Integrated into testing scope

For companies based in Mumbai — India's financial capital and the base for most of the country's BFSI, insurance and NBFC head offices — Praxis-Q runs SOC 2 Type I/II audit on a fast-track timeline, covering a readiness assessment across the Trust Services Criteria, evidence collection and a CPA-attested report. Engagements are scoped around your existing controls, so you're not paying to redo work already in place.
Who issues the certificate: Praxis-Q delivers readiness, implementation and audit support. The formal certification for SSAE 18 (SOC 1 and SOC 2) is issued by Percilchofe CPA LLC, holding Wyoming Board of Certified Public Accountants firm permit no. 1188 (current) and enrolled in the AICPA Peer Review Program (firm no. 900256001833); its Washington-state-licensed CPA performs and signs the attestation - under AICPA rules a SOC report can only be signed by a licensed CPA firm, never by a consultancy. Verify the firm permit on the Wyoming CPA Board, or read how to check a certificate is genuine.

Why weeks, not months

AI-assisted evidence review, one client portal

Every SOC 2 Audit Mumbai engagement runs on the Praxis-Q compliance platform. You upload evidence per control, AI scores it against the requirement, and your auditor reviews in the same workflow — from scoping through to the issued, publicly verifiable certificate.

AI evidence scoring

Every upload is scored against the control before an auditor sees it — gaps surface in minutes, not at the review meeting.

One client portal

Scoping, evidence, auditor queries and status live in one place. No email chains, no spreadsheet trackers.

Auditor sign-off

Praxis-Q auditors review inside the same workflow, so review rounds shrink and the certificate issues sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does SOC 2 audit timeline differ in Mumbai vs. Western markets?
Praxis-Q operates entirely in Mumbai, eliminating timezone handoffs and travel delays. Our standard fast-track is 4–5 months Type II (vs. 8–10 months offshore firms). Weekly in-person check-ins, local compliance context (CERT-In, RBI, DPDP Act), and familiarity with Mumbai's startup infrastructure accelerate control maturity and evidence sign-off.
Is SOC 2 mandatory under DPDP Act 2023?
SOC 2 is not mandated by DPDP Act 2023, but it strongly complements DPDP compliance. SOC 2 Type II demonstrates security, availability, and confidentiality controls; DPDP requires transparent consent, data rights, and impact assessments. Praxis-Q maps SOC 2 controls to DPDP Schedule 2 obligations, creating a unified audit trail for RBI/SEBI fintech clients and EU cloud partners.
Do CERT-In incident response requirements affect our SOC 2 scope?
Yes. CERT-In directions (2024) require disclosure of material breaches within 6 hours. SOC 2 audit includes testing of your incident detection, response, and breach notification workflows. Praxis-Q validates CERT-In alignment and generates evidence of drills and escalation paths, reducing audit re-work and regulatory friction.
What is the cost structure for Mumbai-based businesses?
Scope is driven by headcount, how many environments are in scope, and whether RBI compliance layers apply - a BFSI or fintech programme is materially larger than an early-stage SaaS one. The engagement covers the observation period, all testing and revisions. Pricing is scoped per engagement - request a proposal.
