AI for Commerce & Finance (India)

6 Interactive Sessions

Short, interactive sessions: watch it work, try it, then build it yourself. You can go deeper at any time in the written chapters.

1. 1

   AI for accountants — what it does, and where you still sign

   Understand what AI genuinely automates in an accounting practice, what it cannot touch, and why the line between them is professional rather than technical.

2. 2

   GST — the checks no human eye can do 500 times

   Hand AI the validation work that volume makes impossible by hand — GSTIN structure, HSN-rate consistency, and GSTR-2A reconciliation — and keep the judgment and the filing.

3. 3

   Ratios — AI computes fast, and you check every number

   Get a ratio analysis and a management summary out of AI in minutes — then verify it properly, because a plausible ratio report is the easiest thing in the world to produce.

4. 4

   Anomalies — reviewing every entry instead of fifty

   Run every transaction past a set of audit rules rather than sampling, and understand the trade you are making when you turn each rule on.

5. 5

   Forecasting — useful numbers, and the ones that mislead

   Forecast stock and cash with AI's help, and know which forecasting model fits an Indian MSME's seasonal reality.

6. 6

   Your toolkit — stop re-typing, start reusing

   Turn five modules of ad-hoc questions into a small library of prompts you run every month, and know how to test one before you trust it.

How this certificate is scored

Your certificate shows how many of your written answers met the rubric below, checked by an AI grader. Anyone who checks your certificate sees it.

• You answer 6 short questions, one for each module, in your own words (at least 40 words each).
• An AI grader checks each answer against what its module asks for: it must answer the question, use the course's practice case specifically, and be correct.
• To pass, at least 5 of the 6 answers must meet that bar. The certificate says the answers were graded by AI.
