India · Bengaluru · VBA & automation
VBA is less relevant here than Apps Script, because the files are in Sheets. We will usually recommend Apps Script even though it is the smaller engagement.

A typical job here
Budget 10–20 hours as a starting point. If what you send turns out larger, you hear about it during scoping rather than at the end.

Why Bengaluru specifically
Clients for this are typically in Whitefield, Electronic City, Koramangala and Outer Ring Road, across SaaS and product startups, global capability centres, IT services, biotech, and the aerospace and defence cluster. Investor metrics, GCC reporting and Google Sheets built for a team that lives in them.
For the wider picture of what we see in this market — the recurring problems, the source systems, how the time difference plays out — the Bengaluru guide covers it properly rather than repeating it on every service page.
10–20 hours is typical here. You get a number in writing before we start.
Unlocked files, documentation, recorded handover.

Excel experts in BengaluruScope
Two of the things this covers most often for Bengaluru clients. The vba & automation page sets out the full scope and method.
A new macro written to a brief, for a process that currently happens by hand. We watch the process first — what people actually do differs from the documented procedure, and the difference is normally where the bugs live.
Someone left, the macro still runs, nobody dares touch it. We read it, document what it does, fix what is broken and leave you able to change it without us.
Not if. Source file missing, column renamed, someone has the file open. Each case gets a defined behaviour, and the default is always to stop cleanly rather than half-finish.
Commented code, a plain-English note on how to run it and what to do when it complains, and a recorded walkthrough. The code is unlocked and yours.

Questions
Answers for this service in this market, including the ones that might cost us the job.
Ask us something elseStay where your team works. Apps Script handles scheduled imports, email reports and integrations well. Moving to Excel purely to use VBA would be solving a tooling preference rather than your problem.
Most macros are 8–25 hours depending on how many exceptions the process has. A single-report automation is usually at the lower end; anything touching several files or applications sits higher. You get an estimate in hours in writing before any work starts.
Usually, yes. Google Sheets performance problems are almost always caused by volatile functions, whole-column references and array formulas recalculating unnecessarily. A restructure typically fixes it. If the dataset is genuinely too large for Sheets, we will tell you that instead of optimising something that needs to move to BigQuery.
