Payal Talreja

I’m a detail-oriented Data Research Analyst with 1.5+ years of experience gathering, cleaning, validating, and auditing large datasets from internal and external sources to support investment research and business decision-making.

In my work, I focus on data integrity: I identify discrepancies and non-conforming data, perform quality-control checks, and run data validation & reconciliation across research projects. I’m known for accuracy under tight deadlines and for communicating clearly with stakeholders.

At Morningstar India Pvt Ltd, I gathered and compiled financial datasets to support ongoing investment research initiatives, including evaluating debt structures, lease obligations, and maturity schedules. I also collaborated with senior researchers and global teams on ad-hoc research requests, transition projects, and data migration initiatives.

I’ve earned recognition such as “You Rock,” “Star of the Quarter,” and “Spot Award” for accuracy, reliability, and client query handling. Alongside research, I support day-to-day accounting entries and bookkeeping for a family business—maintaining the same attention to detail—and I independently researched 7 years of financial data for Siyaram Silk Mills Ltd, applying ratio analysis to assess financial performance.
