About

I started my career at 19 on the trading floor of Motilal Oswal, learning risk and capital allocation. But my roots are in the ground game of FMCG. I don't just analyze the market. I operate in it every single day. 1. The Family Business (Distribution): I currently manage distribution for iconic brands like PepsiCo,Parle Agro,Lays,Bailey,Paper Boat. I don't just know "theory." I know the daily reality of logistics, inventory turnover, and retailer negotiations for the biggest brands in India. 2. The Retailer (Family Supermarket): I own and operate a supermarket. I see exactly what customers pick up, what they ignore, and what price points actually work. My store is my research lab. 3. The Investor (Stock Broker): I view every inventory box as an asset class. My finance background ensures we focus on unit economics, not just vanity metrics. Enter Natural Puff. I am using this active, 360° infrastructure to build Natural Puff a clean-label, roasted Makhana brand. We aren't guessing what distributors want I am a distributor. We aren't guessing what retailers want I am a retailer. Building a brand with the discipline of a Broker and the muscle of a Distributor. Current Roles: 🚀 Founder & CEO: Natural Puff 📦 Distributor: PepsiCo, Parle, Lays, Paper Boat 🛒 Owner: Supermarket & Retail Store 📈 Stock Broker & Finance Enthusiast
