At Bajaj Auto, I lead end-to-end export planning, logistics, and business planning for 80+ countries and more than $200M in monthly order volume. I govern logistics freight and operations budgets, manage supply planning across 400+ SKUs, and lead a 10-member SCM team spanning transport, finance, documentation, and planning.

I've built digital control-tower, RPA, and forecasting platforms that reduced processing times by up to 80%, cut operational overhead by 22%, and improved working-capital realization. Previously at Maruti Suzuki, I led pan-India transport, stockyard, inventory, vendor, and workforce operations across a network of roughly 700 trucks per day.
