IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Chartered Accountant and strategic finance leader with 13+ years of experience across corporate strategy, FP&A, financial planning, competitive intelligence, and investment analysis.

Earlier, I led and supported M&A financial advisory work and transaction analytics—developing DCF/comparable/LBO/precedent transaction models, owning investor-facing narratives (Information Memorandums/teasers), and coordinating due diligence between buyers, sellers, auditors, and legal teams.
