Why Consulting?

Consulting offers the ability to sharpen your problem solving and managerial skills, as well as teaches you how to work with and influence business leaders - you get an opportunity to drive tangible results in the business world.

Why Bain?

In one word- 'people'. The Bain DNA is truly unique - people across offices and tenure are not only smart but also incredibly down to earth. Plus, I have a family history with Bain - both my siblings worked for Bain and I decided to continue the tradition.

A memorable experience at Bain

A memorable experience for me was being told by the client to put our "pencils down" midway through a private equity due diligence.

Within two weeks of our work, we had changed their hypothesis on industry growth and convinced them to not make a costly acquisition. The target later got sold to another fund that eventually struggled to realize value from it.

How is Bain India office unique?

The story of Bain India is one of unstoppable growth. I have worked in other Bain offices and the growth in our client and people assets in a short period of time has been phenomenal.

Interests outside work

I enjoy thoroughbred horse racing and have owned and raced horses as a jockey in the amateur horse racing circuit in India.
