About

Category Manager at Flipkart, driving growth and P&L for the Furniture business. BITS Pilani graduate (Civil Engineering + Finance) passionate about consumer behavior, retail strategy, and scaling high-impact businesses. At work, I love digging into consumer insights, unclogging marketplace/ operational bottlenecks, and turning high-level strategy into tangible GMV growth. Off the clock, you’ll find me hunting for a cup of specialty coffee or keeping my athletic edge sharp with a game of cricket or badminton.
