About

MBA Candidate | Audit & Assurance | GST & Taxation | Financial Planning & Markets I am an MBA candidate at SP Jain School of Global Management, with a strong foundation in statutory audits, GST audits, appeals, and project report preparation. My early career at PwC exposed me to diverse industries, where I specialized in compliance, financial reporting, and client advisory. Beyond core audit and taxation, I have a deep interest in the stock market and investment strategies, blending analytical rigor with strategic financial planning. I thrive in roles that require attention to detail, problem-solving, and collaboration, and I’m passionate about helping businesses align their financial strategies with growth objectives. Currently, I’m looking to leverage my experience and MBA learnings to contribute to opportunities in consulting, corporate finance, and business strategy.
