About Me

A journey built on curiosity, rigour, and steady growth.

I started my career at a reputed Chartered Accountant (CA) firm in Siliguri in December 2017 while completing my B.Com. In April 2018, I joined Inspiria Knowledge Campus, where I have continued to build my expertise in finance, accounting, compliance, payroll, ERP systems, MIS reporting, and process automation.

Over the past nine years, I have developed a strong foundation in financial management while continuously adopting technology to improve efficiency and decision-making.

Approach

"Finance should support decisions, not just document them."

Most financial reporting tells you what happened last month. I try to focus on what it means for next month — and how the numbers in front of leadership can become a useful basis for their choices.

Over the past nine years, I've worked on building that kind of finance function: structured control frameworks, compliance tracking, streamlined reporting, and payroll processes that run smoothly. Nothing flashy — just steady, foundational work.

I'm also genuinely interested in the role AI tools can play in finance — I've been using Claude and ChatGPT to help with agreement reviews, compliance support, and workflow design.

What I do

The work behind the work.

Finance at an educational institution touches everything — compliance, people, trust funds, infrastructure. Here's where my hands are most days.

Controls & Issue Identification

Zone-by-zone risk assessment, control testing, and issue tracking — flagging gaps early and supporting sound governance.

🧾

Statutory Compliance

GST returns, TDS filings, PF/ESI — tracked and filed on schedule, with statutory obligations treated as a core priority.

💼

Payroll & Workforce Costs

End-to-end payroll processing, gratuity calculations, and workforce cost analysis aligned to institutional budgets.

🖥️

ERP & Automation

ERP transitions, automated spreadsheet-based reporting dashboards, and AI-assisted workflow design.

🏛️

Treasury & Investments
