About Akshat Agrawal

Most growing brands don\'t struggle with demand, they struggle when inventory, cash and operations stop scaling together.I work with D2C and omnichannel brands to reduce excess inventory, improve availability, and build scalable supply planning systems. Over the last 10+ years, I have led demand, supply and network planning across some of India\'s most complex supply chains: Flipkart - Planning and Analytics for Grocery & Minutes, Earlier led inventory and supply planning for Flipkart Health Udaan - Supply Planning Head during high growth, multi category expansion Bosch - Demand, Supply and Network planning across large scale operations Volkswagen - Packaging PlanningI have worked across: Grocery and Quick commerce Health and essentials High-SKU, High-uncertainty environments Scale-up and transformation phaseWhat I help brands with: Demand & inventory planning logic Stockout reduction without overbuying SKU rationalization & aging control Network & replenishment design Ops cadence, dashboards & decision rhythmsTypical outcomes (within ~90 days): 10-30% reduction in excess inventory 3-7% improvement in availability Faster cash rotation and clearer executionI work as a hands-on operator and not a slide consultantIf you are a brand doing 20-200Cr GMV and inventory or availability is becoming a growth bottleneck, happy to do a short diagnostic.
