India’s Energy Transition - From Ambition to Impact.   Over nearly three decades advising clients in the energy and infrastructure space, I've witnessed India's #Energy sector transform from majorly conventional power sources to currently a mix of renewable energy, green hydrogen as well. What was once a narrow supply base is now a far more dynamic landscape. The momentum is real.   The World Bank estimates India will require more than $2.4 trillion investments to build climate-resilient #Urban infrastructure by 2050. For #Investors, it is an opportunity to participate in one of the most compelling growth stories. For #India, it is about converting capital into projects that can power the economy for decades by blending public and private funding and structuring investments for creating long-term value.   That said, the road is not without hurdles. Projects sometimes get held up due to funding costs, delayed clearances, and fragmented supply chains. Unlocking momentum requires policy stability, scalable manufacturing, and financing aligned with long-term goals.   The way forward lies in building an ecosystem that fast-tracks this transition through policy stability, coordinated execution, and strong delivery mechanisms. I’ve seen first-hand how clear integration plans, dedicated project teams, and active monitoring can turn complex infrastructure initiatives into success stories.   At Deloitte, we work alongside Energy sector Investors and Government leaders to turn investment plans into bankable, deliverable projects. That includes shaping the deal strategy, structuring partnerships, guiding disinvestment programmes, and building governance and frameworks that keep execution on track. The objective is clear: translate capital commitments into lasting economic returns thus creating shareholder’s value.   Energy is more than just building infrastructure. It is a key driver of GDP growth and a pillar of India’s resilience in a low-carbon global economy.   #EnergyTransition #Renewables #Infrastructure Saurabh Kamdar Gaurav Arora Hitesh Sachdeva Rohit Berry

Building a Future-Ready Finance Function Transformation is not just about tools - it’s about people. To future-proof finance at #HUL, we are rewiring capabilities by investing in technology, talent, and a culture of experimentation. Excited to share my latest article published in ETCFO, where I delve into some of the big shifts we are driving to build a future-ready finance function at HUL. We are re-defining finance to serve as both a guardian of value and a strategic partner in accelerating business performance. The transformation we are driving is beyond technology – it is a cultural shift that redefines how finance contributes to the organization, bringing together financial and human capital. All in all, my experience has taught me that transformation is difficult, not always successful, and demands a major cultural shift, but is here to stay.

Global trade dynamics are shifting. As the world moves toward tighter policies and strategic self-interest, India must respond not just with scale, but with sovereignty. Advanced manufacturing is our opportunity to decouple, build self-reliance, and shape the future of global supply chains. This moment demands ambition, especially from Indian founders. I try to make the case in my latest column for Moneycontrol: https://lnkd.in/gW9wFxEc
