I have stayed in the same organization that i joined in 2002, i.e. Ernst & Young. I work in the Corporate Finance Division, focusing on M&A and private Equity Transactions. I have been part of closed transactions exceeding a total of $10 Billion.
2006 - Present, Associate Vice President , Transaction Advisory Services, Ernst & Young , Delhi
2004-2006 , Senior Associate , Transaction Advisory Services, Ernst & Young , Delhi
2002-2004 , Associate , Transaction Advisory Services, Ernst & Young , Delhi
Currently Lead a team of 3 associates and 2 analysts as part of the infrastructure and Metals & Mining group. I have been involved in highly publicized an visible transactions such as the biggest Acquisition in Indian Aviation Sector. I single handedly managed the whole process of the largest disinvestment yet in Indian sugar industry ( Involving more than 1,00,000 employees). Was part of a 3 member team handling financing arrargement of the largest ever power plant to be set up in india ($ 4 Billion). I have been part of various transactions which have been very visible in india, and have also worked with the state/central government.
Marquee Transactions
$500 Million disinvestment of Sugar Mills in North India
$4 Billion power project financing in India ( Largest Ever)
$400 Million Acquisition in Aviation space ( Larget Ever in India - at least then it was
)
$100 Million PE funding for a major Indian construction player.
Since the indian financial sector has really boomed, I've had a great chance to work with all the large PE funds ( Blackstone, Warburg, TPG etc.) . I've been consistently been recognized as a high performer in the company. Exposure has been phenomenal partly because Ernst & Young is the leading M&A/PE advisor in India, unlike in the US/UK where the like of GS or UBS or MS or ML dominate.
I've travelled extensively as part of business in US, EU and the middle East. But till now, I have not had a permanent stint outside india.
- extracurricular involvements
Won both the two largest stock trading competition to be ever held in india. Editor of school/college magazines and actively pursued dramatics throughout academic career. Invoved in mentoring and helping poor kids get proper healthcare. Me and my brother ( MD from Temple Univ.) have teamed up and we help hold medical awareness camps in poor neighbourhoods.
- awards, patents, publications, etc...
"Star Values Award" - E&Y - Given to high performers
No major awards...
- interesting personal facts - countries lived in, challenges faced, unusual interests
Studied management in France for three months as part of an exchange program.
Travel a lot - Been to 22 countries till now. In Asia, Europe and Africa...
******Long term Goals**************
Want to create significant change through a proprietary investment arm, such as IFC/ADB etc... I'm starting to tilt more and more towards infrastructural/developmental private equity/venture capital investments.
That was loooooooooong :!: Just wanted a fair evaluation
Where do I stand a chance? And where can i assume I'm safe. Also, I was really interested in IMD after going through their website, can you please give me a one liner on my chances there. Ans also, where do you feel Can I improve my profile.
Thanks a lot again, you guys deserve a nice big round a applause
Cheers,
Dude M. :twisted:
