A Finance & Accounts Expert with 30+ years of global experience; I bring to the table, exceptional skills in accelerating business growth, establishing profitable finance practices, leading transformation programs and solving regulatory challenges. While working with multi-cultural, geographically diverse stakeholders and teams, I held P&L accountability, mitigated risks, controlled costs, and established governance framework of multi-million programs & projects. Deft at USA/Indian GAAP & IFRS and Sarbanes Oxley Act; I gained expertise in establishing internal financial controls and managing statutory & internal audits. My commitment, loyalty and professionalism can be testified by the fact that as part of the core strategy team, I spearheaded strategic M&As, and enabled ABB to achieve sustainable growth in the Indian market. On several occasions I was handpicked to lead and support strategic deals & partnerships, business transformations, and financial control measures. I actively supported RE & IS infrastructure, ESG, and CSR programs at ABB India and garnered significant experience presenting at Investor, Executive, and Board levels. I have to my credit publishing the Business Responsibility & Sustainability Report, 2021 as part of CSR initiatives at ABB India, for which it was recognized as an early adopter of SEBI’s mandate. A Cost & Management Accountant and a Certified Independent Director, I have also undertaken professional development courses at IMD Business School, Switzerland. A focused leader, always inspiring teams to deliver outstanding results, I am not just satisfied with efforts, but believe in delivering end-result. Fond of playing badminton, cycling, and listening to light music, I always aim to improve myself holistically. My skills and actions are underpinned by Mahatma Gandhi’s quote ‘Be the change you wish to see in the world’. I am looking to improve my networks, hoping to share knowledge and grow ideas into actionable initiatives.
