Highly recommended!

I have been working with DS Advisory for my accounting and payroll services for several years, and they have been an incredible support to my business, Dr D Cosmetics.

Chanaka and the entire team are highly professional, knowledgeable, approachable, and always available whenever I need advice. They take the time to explain everything clearly and consistently provide prompt, reliable, and accurate service. Their guidance has given me peace of mind and allowed me to focus on growing my business.

What I appreciate most is their genuine care, honesty, and commitment to their clients’ success. It’s reassuring to know I have a team I can trust to look after my business finances and payroll.

I highly recommend DS Advisory to anyone looking for an exceptional accounting and payroll service. Thank you, Chanaka and the team, for your outstanding support over the years. I truly appreciate everything you do.🙏🥰

We have always gotten such clear, understandable advice from Sonny. I feel very confident and in control of my financial affairs with him. He really does go out of his way to help you, and I believe he genuinely wants to help his clients thrive, grow and succeed. The communications and administrative side of things from their office team have also been fantastic. Highly recommended.

What a fabulous, coherent team! My extreme and heartfelt thanks to Chanaka and the team at DS Advisory.
Needing immediate assistance for my elderly dad who had missed random tax returns, had a capital gains tax situation and was moving into an aged care facility, Chanaka was referred to me and I couldn’t be happier.
On a short timeline, they came through with spades to get everything up to date and lodged and then dealt with the ATO on some tricky issues that arose.
Their patience and expertise has made me feel in safe hands. I could always speak to someone when I called, got regular updates and everything was explained to me on a call prior to email arriving promptly with any documents to sign. They defiantly have ‘that’ personal touch!
I would absolutely recommend them and they are now my accountant too!

I have been attending DS Advisory for over a decade and I will travel over 40 min to get there every year as Sonny and Joseph are amazing. Sonny in particular has helped me post my divorce to build my wealth back up again. I couldn’t recommend them high enough.

We had a fantastic experience with Sonny at DS Advisory. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. He took the stress out of filing our own tax returns and made the entire process smooth and straightforward.

Sonny explained everything clearly, and found deductions we didn’t even know we were eligible for—maximizing our refund more than we expected! We truly felt like Sonny had our best interests in mind.

If you’re looking for reliable, friendly, and expert tax professionals, we highly recommend Sonny at DS Advisory.

Thanks so much team!!

I have been with them for many years and can truly say that their excellent service and commitment to their client truly sets them apart. They consistently go above and beyond to ensure that we are well informed and confident in our tax strategies. Their entire process and the many years I have been a client has been seamless and stress free, thanks to their expertise and professionalism.

I want to particularly commend Sonny De Silva, our primary contact at DS Advisory for the insights and strategic advisory services that have been tailored specifically to our needs. I look forward to many years partnering with DS Advisory.

Connect with DS advisory for a service that covers:
• Tax advisory
• SMSF establishment and compliance

Sonny De Silva has been my amazing and hard working accountant for over 25 years. Sonny and his team at DS Advisory have always worked hard to efficiently and accurately assess all things financial for myself, from tax returns, shares and investments, to property tax law.

And now that I'm about to enter a new chapter in my life and finally marry my beautiful fiancee, Sonny and the team at DS Advisory are already prepared to advise both my wife to be and I on how best to financially navigate and grow in our new future together.

Could not recommend Sonny and the team at DS Advisory enough.

DS Advisory has looked after my tax returns for a few years now and have always been friendly and flexible getting me the maximum amount where possible.

Great company with great staff, Chanaka is fantastic to deal with.

Highly recommended to everyone from the little man to large companies.
We were acquiring land for an SDA property for disabled people. Our trust account needed to be opened within a week. DSA team helped us by setting up the Trust Account for us within a very short period of time. This whole process has been made so simple because they were available and what they require of us was very clear.

Been using DS advisory for over 9 years now. Love their friendly service, and are super helpful. They make the process simple and definitely appreciated their guidance and commitment in getting the best outcome for us!.
We have been using DS Advisory for over 10+ years now and in that time as our business grew, DS Advisory were able to not only handle all our accounting and taxation needs but have also provided us with countless occurrences of absolute quality service and expert advice. The team at DS Advisory is a true testament to how the customer always comes first whether that be for a simple 2min question over the phone or a more complex SMSF structure implementation. As individuals grew within the company, they remained loyal to their specific customers and to this day continue to handle these matters without offloading a single task.
I would recommend them to any person or company without a shred of a doubt.

We’ve been working with DS Advisory for approx. 8 years now. To begin with they mainly managed our annual tax returns, however over time our tax affairs have become much more complex as we have a Business, Family Trust and SMSF. They’ve helped us with the formation of these entities, servicing our tax compliance and reporting needs. Aside from their professionalism, what we have appreciated most is their honest feedback and tailored advice. They've assisted us with solutions to suit our individual situation, enabling us to make better informed decisions. Personally I strongly believe DS Advisory have the right people and processes in place to assist in both simple or more complex situations and for us they're considered like a partner rather than a consultant as they've been an asset to our success.
