About

I am an HR professional with over 17 years of experience, currently working as Deputy General Manager – Corporate HR at GM Modular. I believe that the real recognition of HR comes when it walks hand-in-hand with the business. Once the context is aligned, everything else, strategy, structure, systems, falls seamlessly into place. From setting up high-performing teams across new verticals to leading strategic initiatives in Performance Management, Talent Acquisition, and Learning & Development, I have worn many hats. I thrive on building from scratch, whether it’s launching learning platforms, designing policy frameworks, or implementing our first automated TA and PMS systems. My previous roles across leading organizations like Prama Hikvision, Lupin, ACG Group, and FDC gave me a strong foundation in HR operations, plant setups, and greenfield projects, with a consistent focus on aligning talent strategy with business growth.

I play the role of a strategic HR partner focused on building strong teams and driving people practices that power our growth.

I have designed and rolled out our first Goals-based Performance Management System, revamped grades and designations organisation wide, and automated the entire PMS cycle to bring in transparency and efficiency. I also champion HR digitization to improve the process effectiveness and employee experience. Alongside, I work closely with business leaders on workforce planning, Performance, New Initiatives and employee engagement to keep our people strategy closely aligned with GM Modular’s business objectives.
