Free consultationAbout Cedar Group
Cedar Group is a small advisory firm in Oakville that brings tax, legal, and valuation work together under one roof. Formally known as The Cedar Consulting Group Inc., it's built around four principals: Sunny Jaggi handles Canadian tax, Hasan Naqvi leads the legal practice, Vabby Makkar runs business valuations, and Sandy Saini covers US and cross-border tax. The firm says it was built to fix a coordination problem business owners often run into elsewhere, where separate tax, legal, and valuation advisors lose context at every handoff. At Cedar Group those three disciplines work from the same table instead of in sequence.
Hasan Naqvi was called to the Ontario bar in 2012 after earning an LL.B. from the University of New Brunswick, and was a partner at Blaney McMurtry LLP in Toronto before co-founding Cedar Group. Sunny Jaggi holds a Master of Taxation from the University of Waterloo, and Vabby Makkar pairs a CPA and CBV designation with a real estate broker's licence to handle both the valuation and the sale of a business. Cedar Group doesn't prepare tax returns, financial statements, or bookkeeping. It works on advisory files such as corporate reorganizations, estate freezes, and CRA disputes, and offers a free 15 minute call before any engagement begins.

The neighbourhood
Cedar Group works from a single office at 1670 North Service Road East in Oakville. Its four principals work directly with clients on complex files such as reorganizations, cross-border filings, and business sales, rather than routing the work through an assembly line of staff.
Frequently asked questions
- Can Cedar Group help value and sell my business?
- Yes. The valuation practice is led by a CPA who also holds a CBV (Chartered Business Valuator) designation and a real estate broker's licence, so the same team can prepare the valuation and handle the sale.
- Does Cedar Group handle US or cross-border tax filings?
- Yes. Cedar Group's US Tax Principal is a CPA licensed in both Ontario and Illinois, and the firm handles cross-border structuring, treaty analysis, and IRS filings for clients with US business exposure.
- I need a shareholders agreement or help with a corporate reorganization, does Cedar Group do that?
- Yes. The legal practice, led by a Barrister and Solicitor called to the Ontario bar in 2012, drafts shareholders agreements and handles the legal side of corporate reorganizations, amalgamations, and share or asset purchases.
- Does Cedar Group prepare tax returns or do bookkeeping?
- No. Cedar Group is an advisory practice. It does not prepare tax returns, financial statements, or bookkeeping, and instead focuses on reorganizations, estate freezes, succession planning, and CRA disputes.
