I lead Tata Motors’ PV and EV profitability portfolio from VAVE ideas to realized benefits.
What I'm looking for
At Tata Motors, I lead PV and EV VAVE and profitability improvement initiatives from idea generation through implementation and financial realization. I manage a FY27 portfolio of 500+ projects across engineering, manufacturing, purchase, finance, quality, supply chain, and business functions.
I own PMO governance, monthly Managing Director profitability reviews, and portfolio tracking through Advanced Excel and Power BI. My current portfolio covers 600+ FY27 projects, 400+ FY26 projects, and ₹870Cr+ in realized benefits across FY26 and FY27 YTD.
Previously, I led VAVE PMO for Harrier and Safari, supported EV profitability, and drove a ~₹3,000Cr cost-reduction initiative. My earlier Tata Motors experience spans product quality, warranty analysis, regulatory compliance, electric bus implementation, and new-product introduction.
