Aarti Varia
Founder

Aarti is a well-known R&D Tax claims specialist with over 17 years experience in preparing R&D claims for both large companies and SMEs across a wide range of sectors including Technology, Manufacturing, Construction, Printing, Aerospace and Utilities, amongst others.

With this substantial experience Aarti is able to quickly navigate through an organisation to identify where R&D eligibility lies within the business. On many occasions this experience has led to a substantial increase in original claims submitted.

Additionally, with her External Audit background, she works closely with client finance teams to understand their reporting systems to develop efficient claim methodologies and in securing these with HMRC for future claims preparation.

“I have worked with Aarti for many years on the OneSubsea UK R&D claims. Aarti worked closely with me and our finance teams to break down complex data sets to derive high quality data for the claims. Aarti has strong knowledge of the R&D Tax regime as well as strong project management skills which is really important to deliver high quality, robust claims, efficiently for an organisation of this size. I would highly recommend Aarti for high quality, professional advice and service for anyone wanting to make R&D claims and it has always been a pleasure working with her and her team.”

Jeremy Bentley, UK Tax Manager, Cameron Group

“I worked with Aarti on the Schneider R&D claims. She helped the project run more efficiently, was extremely professional and knowledgeable, helping us to identify more than 8% of additional qualifying expenditure than the previous year’s claim. Highly recommend!”
