What I'm looking for

I'm targeting a challenging Head of Finance or strategic/business finance role in a well-established organization, where I can drive corporate strategy, fundraising, investor relations, governance, and value creation.

At DocOnline Health India, I lead the full finance function, reporting to the Managing Director and supporting a HealthTech business serving over 6 million families across India. I own management accounting, board reporting, investor relations, planning, forecasts, budgets, financial models, governance, compliance, and fundraising support.

Previously at Paytm Payments Bank, I drove business P&L and key metrics, revamped cashback propositions, and led end-to-end P&L strategy for a National Common Mobility Cards product platform. I received the “Rock Star” award for creating a product-level P&L for the bank.

At Ola, I supported operating targets, rolling forecasts, investor reporting, GTM strategy, pricing, and financial modelling for mobility launches. At Hindustan Petroleum, I managed fixed-asset capitalization, CWIP reviews, CAPEX feasibility reviews, and management MIS.

I'm a Chartered Accountant with more than eight years of finance leadership experience across HealthTech, fintech, ride-hailing, and oil. I combine CFO-level rigour with hands-on business partnering across strategic finance, fundraising, investor relations, governance, and operational finance.
