This article has a bit of history. It used to be a user page ([[User:Aabaig]]) I speedy deleted. The deletion was contested by the user on [[User talk:Aabaig|his talk page]], asserting his company did meet the [[WP:CORP]] criteria. Since we both disagreed, I moved the page to the article space and I am bringing it to AfD. My opinion is that despite the fact that this company is on a list of accredited companies (with ~30 other companies from Pakistan), it does not make it notable, and its small size (30 employees) doesn't help.

Visitor Comments:

a) This firm has around 100 employees if you include the employees which are hired by the firm but outsourced to various local and multinational organizations all over the country. The concept is known as Staff Leasing or HR Outsourcing. Since, such employees are hired purely for specific clients and are used there dedicatedly for long periods, such employees are not included by the firm in its manpower strength.

b) Pakistan has more than 500 Accountancy Practicing Firms all working under license from the profession's regulatory body - the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan, however, only around 90 odd firms have satisfactory Quality Control Ratings. This firm is one of them.

c) This firm was one of the first few professional firms / companies to have been given the status of ACCA Accredited Employer by ACCA even before companies such as Unilever Pakistan, Proctor & Gamble Pakistan, etc were given the same status.

d) This firm's IS/IT Division's main clientele is UK based and the IS/IT Division's offices are also located in Leicestershire as well as in Newcastle - UK. Having offshore offices is a rarity among Accountancy / Consulting Firms in Pakistan.

f)The firm's growth rate during the last financial year has been more than 100%.

Keeping in view the fact that in Pakistan, there are only 5004 Chartered Accountants with 20% of them (around 1000) overseas, so from the point of view of Pakistanis, this firm might justify a place at Wikipedia.

My two cents.
