  • Professional Summary

    I am a Chartered Accountant and the founder of a Pune-based mid-market M&A and transaction advisory practice. With over 25 years of experience, I focus on financial and legal due diligence, mergers and acquisitions, restructuring, valuations, and deal strategy for both domestic and international clients.

    I lead a 25+member multidisciplinary team across finance, legal, taxation, valuation, strategy, and compliance, providing end-to-end support from opportunity identification and due diligence to negotiation, deal structuring, and post-merger integration. I have successfully closed numerous mid-market transactions, consistently delivered 20%+ valuation improvements, and grown the average deal size year-on-year, helping clients achieve smooth and profitable exits and acquisitions across multiple sectors in India and globally.

  • Fee Details

    I do not charge an upfront fee. I charge milestone-based fees once the work is signed, and I also charge a success fee post-deal closure.
