Crowe has made a strategic investment in Crowe Advisory Services India LLP (CAS), a move aimed at expanding Crowe’s consulting and advisory footprint and strengthening delivery capabilities in India, one of the world’s fastest-growing major markets.
The deal deepens collaboration between the two organizations, which are independent members of the Crowe Global network—an international accounting and advisory network comprised of more than 200 independent firms operating across more than 130 countries. Crowe said the investment is designed to accelerate growth in India by pairing Crowe LLP’s global reach and client relationships with CAS’s local-market expertise and technical depth.
CAS provides advisory, consulting, and business support services spanning direct and indirect tax, transfer pricing, due diligence, valuations, M&A support, risk advisory, internal audit, and cybersecurity. Crowe said closer coordination between the firms will help clients navigate increasingly complex cross-border and regulatory environments, while enabling the combined teams to develop and deliver more advanced solutions tailored to the evolving needs of businesses operating in and through India.
Crowe said the transaction underscores its focus on knowledge sharing, innovation, and the creation of new offerings for a diverse and international client base—particularly as demand rises for advisory support related to transactions, risk management, cybersecurity, and regulatory compliance.
Crowe provides audit, tax, and consulting services to public and private entities and operates as an independent member firm within Crowe Global, serving clients worldwide through the network’s member firms.
