CA Venugopal Gella, FCA, DISA (ISA), CISA is a practising Chartered Accountant with specialization in GST and Indirect Taxes. He is the Founder Partner of Venu & Vinay Chartered Accountants and has developed significant practical experience in GST litigation, appellate procedures and technology-enabled compliance.

His professional approach combines tax law, litigation practice and technology. Through his work in GST, he focuses on helping professionals understand not only the legal framework of appeals but also the practical aspects of documentation, drafting, limitation, pre-deposit, procedural compliance and electronic portal filing.

As part of his initiative to simplify GST appellate practice, he has also developed an appeal filing support workflow through the GSTZen portal, designed to provide a guided process for reviewing, organising and preparing cases before final submission on the GSTAT portal. The practical experience gained from this initiative has also contributed to the development of GST Appeals Made Easy.

His professional learning in GST has also been shaped through interaction with experienced practitioners and mentors, particularly through the Bangalore Study Group, where he developed his understanding of GST litigation and interpretation of the law.

Through GST Appeals Made Easy, CA Venugopal Gella aims to make GST appellate practice more approachable for Chartered Accountants, advocates, tax professionals, businesses and teams involved in GST litigation, with emphasis on clarity, systematic preparation and practical application.
