## Headline

0→1 builder \| Category P&L, Chief of Staff, program launches \| Ex\-Flipkart, Meesho, CityMall \| IIT Ropar

## About

I get handed something with no playbook and build the operating engine\. 6 years across Flipkart, Meesho, CityMall, Atlys and most recently Chief of Staff at Sevenloop\. The through\-line is 0→1 — category builds, vertical launches, operating cadences from scratch\. A few things I've done that I'd point to: • Built CityMall's electronics and beauty categories from zero, scaling monthly revenue 4x \(₹0\.4cr → ₹1\.8cr\) while lifting NMV from 35% to 65% — growth without trading off unit economics\. • Launched Atlys' Schengen visa vertical from a blank page — live in under 90 days, \~35% of all company bookings within a quarter\. • Led a team of 18 Key Account & Senior Key Account Managers at Meesho on a ₹30cr\+ Electronics category; built dashboards that hit 87% team adoption and lifted click\-to\-add\-to\-cart 3\.75x\. • Delivered 104% YoY growth at Flipkart Babycare — the highest by any KAM in the category — and launched Super Cute's, Flipkart's exclusive diaper brand, that scaled 50x YoY and was written up as a Bain & Company case study\. Two things I hold to: fix causes, not symptoms\. And refuse to buy growth with margin\. Bengaluru\-based\. B\.Tech from IIT Ropar\. Open to conversations on category, growth, 0→1 builds and founder's office roles\.
