IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m an Accounts & Commercial Management professional with more than sixteen year experience managing finance, commercial, and accounting functions. I bring extensive exposure to inventory management, computerized reporting, and taxation, with working knowledge of ERP-SAP.
In my current role as Deputy Manager – Commercial at ALUDECOR LAMINATIONS PVT LTD, I lead commercial and accounting activity across branches in India. I manage credit management, customer outstanding follow-ups, customer credit limits/credit days reporting, and banking-related work like channel finance and bill discounting.
Previously, as a Commercial Executive with ASIAN PAINTS PPG PVT LTD, I handled bills receivable and depot operations for Kolkata & Bhubaneswar. I coordinated customer order-to-dispatch activities, debtor reconciliations, scheme statements, and C/N & D/N preparation, while also strengthening vendor management and expense monitoring.
I’ve also built strong SAP-based operational experience through roles including Senior Executive (Commercial) at GREENPLY INDUSTRIES LTD, working in SAP modules FI, SD, and MM. Earlier, as an Accountant at VIKASH METAL & POWER LTD, I generated monthly financial statements, supported internal/external audits, and assessed TDS/income tax/service tax liabilities, including VAT/excise/service tax reconciliations.
