About Arthvane
Built for the question every business eventually asks: where did the money go?
Arthvane is a finance advisory firm for CFOs, founders and boards, headquartered in New Delhi. We work on the commercial side of finance: price, margin, cash, and the numbers leadership makes decisions with.
The name
Wealth, with a sense of direction.
- Arth Sanskrit
- From artha: wealth and prosperity, and also meaning and purpose. Value that is earned for a reason.
- Vane noun
- The instrument on a rooftop that turns to show which way the wind is moving. It does not create the weather; it tells you how to face it.
The mark is two strokes. One stands for what it costs, the other for what it earns, and the second rises above the first. The distance between them is margin, which is where our work lives.
Why we exist
Most finance functions are built to report. Few are built to steer.
In a growing business, finance is pulled towards compliance, closing the books and answering the auditors. The questions that move value tend to wait: whether prices are holding, which customers actually make money, when cash will run short.
Those questions do not belong to accounting or to strategy alone. They sit in between, where rigorous costing discipline meets a commercial view of the business. Arthvane was set up to work in exactly that space, and to leave each client better able to answer those questions on its own.
How we work with clients
Six commitments we hold ourselves to on every engagement, whatever its size.
Evidence before opinion
Every recommendation traces back to your own numbers, so you can test it before you act on it.
Commercial, not just compliant
We read finance through price, margin and cash: the levers that change outcomes, not just reports.
Fixed scope, fixed fee
Deliverables and fee are agreed in writing first. You will never receive an open-ended bill.
Built to be owned
Models, dashboards and routines are documented and handed over. Your team runs them without us.
Confidential by default
An NDA before any data changes hands, the minimum data needed, and files returned or deleted at close.
Who we are
Practitioners who have done the work from the inside.
Arthvane is a partnership of finance practitioners. We have built the forecasts, priced the deals, closed the books and presented the numbers to leadership ourselves, so we know where figures break and how teams really use them.
We see a business from the ledger up: what each product, customer and process truly costs, what it truly earns, and which controls keep it that way. That inside view shapes everything we deliver, from a pricing review to a board dashboard.
