I am an innovative leader in eCommerce and Operations with over a decade of experience driving hyper-growth and operational excellence. Currently, as Director of Last Mile Operations at Zepto, I oversee a massive scale of 2.5 lakh orders per day across 130+ dark stores in West India. My career is defined by a unique blend of corporate leadership at industry giants like Flipkart and Swiggy and the grit of building two successful startups from the ground up. ​I specialize in scaling complex logistics, optimizing unit economics, and building high-performing teams from scratch. Whether it’s reducing delivery costs by 32% or expanding store footprints by 600% in a single quarter, I thrive on turning data-driven insights into sustainable business growth. ​Career Highlights ​Scaling & Expansion: At Zepto, I scaled the Gujarat and MP clusters from 8 to 54 stores in just three months, achieving 80,000 daily orders with elite serviceability. ​Operational Efficiency: Successfully reduced cluster-level cost per order from ₹56 to ₹38 at Zepto and slashed service order costs by 56% during my tenure at Livspace. ​Supply Chain Mastery: Managed end-to-end operations for 70+ Mother Hubs nationwide at Flipkart and spearheaded the execution of Big Billion Days 2021. ​Entrepreneurial Success: ​Streetz Hyperlocal: Secured ₹1.7 Crore in pre-seed funding at a $2M valuation, growing the business 100x in its first 13 weeks. ​Mother’s Magic Foods: Built a Food FMCG brand from scratch and successfully exited through an acquisition by Rasna International. ​Leadership & Culture: Managed massive fleets of 12,000+ delivery executives at Swiggy while improving delivery rider NPS by +15 points. ​Core Expertise ​Strategic Operations: Last Mile Delivery, Supply Chain Optimization, & Cost Reduction. ​Business Scaling: Rapid Market Entry, Stakeholder Management, & Hyperlocal Strategy. ​Team Development: Mentoring large-scale ground teams and cluster heads to drive 99%+ serviceability. ​I hold an MBA from the Indian School of Business (ISB) and have international management training from ESCP Business School and MDI Gurgaon. Beyond the boardroom, I am a Reiki Master and a Black Belt in Karate, disciplines that fuel my focus and resilience in fast-paced environments.
