About

When I was a kid, I dreamt of being a journalist. Well, here I am. Bringing facts to life, helping people make informed decisions - I consider this as important. I write primarily for the business and global sections at The Times of India, bringing decades of experience in tax policy and journalism. I also pen an occasional column for the edit pages of The Economic Times. Through my writing, I simplify complex policy changes and explain how they impact individuals and businesses. I have also worked in a law firm and two of the Big 4s where my specialization was international tax advisory. This background helps me break down complicated policies and provide clear and insightful information to our readers. Areas covered: Direct and indirect tax; Immigration policy (with a special focus on US and Canada).
