EXPERIENCE
SUNFLAG GROUP Delhi, India
BUSINESS ANALYST June 2025 - Present
PROFITABILITY FORECASTING DASHBOARD:
• Stakeholders needed a framework to assess the feasibility of manufacturing defense grade gun barrels,
taking into account complex cost structures and profitability assumptions.
• Developed dashboard integrating raw material costs, labor, energy, and overheads with scenario-based
pricing; applied hypothesis testing and sensitivity analysis on key cost drivers; built forecasting
models leveraging historical margins and utilization.
• Impact: Improved pricing precision and decision-making speed by 40%, optimized margins, and esta-
blished a scalable analytical framework for future defense projects worth up to 48.39 Cr.
OPERATIONAL DELAY ANALYSIS:
• Business faced frequent production delays in SMS and BSM units, impacting throughput and costs.
• Conducted time-series analysis on 24 months of delay logs, applying statistical correlation tests
between machine downtime, workforce shifts, and material input quality.
• Impact: Reduced monthly delay time by 430 minutes, improved machine uptime by 7% and signifi-
cantly reduced operational costs.
COST ANALYTICS & PRICING STRATEGY:
• Evaluated the feasibility of acquiring a 2400 Cr potash mine.
• Conducted cost analytics by breaking down mining costs (labor, equipment, energy, logistics) and
benchmarking against industry standards; developed scenario-based pricing models incorporating global
potash prices, demand forecasts, and risk simulations.
• Impact: Built a profitability framework with ±3% accuracy, enabling data-driven M&A decisions and
shaping the pricing and cost strategy for entry into the fertilizer sector.
DEFECT RISK ANALYTICS:
• The rise in defect rates in rolled steel products increased rework costs.
• Built a classification model (logistic regression) to predict the probability of defects using machine
sensor data, temperature cycles, and operator logs.
• Impact: Reduced defect occurrence by 14%, saved 12 Cr annually and improved reliability of delivery.

PROJECTS
MEDIA BUYING ANALYTICS, Initiative Media Delhi
• The business required an analytical framework to optimize the purchase of TV ad slots across shows,
ensuring maximum ROI from limited budgets.
• Cleaned and modeled historical TRP & audience data using Python (pandas, NumPy); applied
time-series forecasting and regression models to predict slot performance; used A/B testing for
campaign effectiveness; built pricing elasticity models to estimate optimal bid values.
• Improved slot pricing accuracy by 20%, reduced wasted spend on low-impact slots by 12%, and esta-
blished a scalable ML-driven framework for media buying decisions.
