Plutozz exercises standard professional diligence in performing accounting and tax services. However, the following limitations apply:

No Liability for Client Omissions or Inaccuracies: Plutozz is not liable for administrative penalties, late fines, or interest assessed by the FTA, MOHRE, or other regulatory bodies arising from incomplete, fraudulent, or late documentation submitted by the Client.
