After qualifying as a Chartered Accountant in 2014, I spent several years working in areas such as financial reporting, financial projections, tax planning, and strategic financial analysis. These experiences provided an opportunity to look closely at the numbers reported by businesses and understand the deeper story they often represent.

Financial statements are not merely collections of figures. They reflect management decisions, operational efficiency, competitive dynamics, and the long-term direction of a company. Understanding that story behind the numbers gradually became an area of strong interest.

Over time, this interest evolved into a deeper exploration of how thoughtful investors analyse businesses and how long-term investing frameworks are developed. Stock Manthan emerged from this journey. The purpose of this initiative is to share educational insights about business analysis and investor thinking in a structured and practical manner.

In addition to professional practice, I am also the author of the book Stock Manthan, published in 2020, which introduces readers to the foundational principles of stock investing and fundamental analysis. Through this platform, the objective remains simple — to help investors think more clearly about businesses and approach investing with discipline and perspective.
