About ArthaVan

Every forest begins with a single seed.

ArthaVan's story began in 2006, when Chartered Accountant Anil Parekh set up his practice in Rajkot with a simple intent: to make finance easier to understand and more useful for the people who depend on it.

How it began

From the fundamentals to the bigger questions.

2006Practice founded in Rajkot by Chartered Accountant Anil Parekh

In the early years, the work was rooted in the fundamentals: accounts, audits, tax and compliance for businesses and families across Saurashtra. Over time, clients began bringing bigger questions.

  • 01How should a business owner separate company wealth from family wealth?
  • 02How should a family invest the proceeds of a sale?
  • 03How can wealth be passed on without dispute or unnecessary tax?

Answering those questions well required more than one specialism. It required tax, investment, legal structuring and business advisory to sit at the same table. That conviction shaped what ArthaVan is today: an integrated wealth and legacy practice, supported by a team of Chartered Accountants and finance professionals.

The name

What ArthaVan means.

Two Sanskrit words that together describe how we think about wealth.

Artha

Purposeful wealth, meaning, and true prosperity
that serves a greater purpose.

Van

Forest — symbol of abundance,
interconnection, and sustainable life.

Artha is the Sanskrit word for wealth and purpose. Van means forest. We chose the name because a forest is how we think about wealth: not a single tree to be harvested, but a living system that, tended well, shelters many generations.

Our long-term philosophy

We don't simply manage wealth. We nurture it.

Enduring wealth is built slowly and deliberately, through decisions made with a clear purpose, reviewed with discipline, and measured by what they leave behind.
