About Chirag Goenka
I am a value-creation CFO with 15+ years of experience across manufacturing, building materials, and consumer sectors.My work has largely spanned three mandates: building businesses from scratch, turning around stressed assets, and scaling platforms with disciplined capital and governance frameworks.At Welspun Flooring, I built a greenfield manufacturing platform from conceptualization to ~₹700 Cr revenue, turning EBITDA positive while institutionalizing funding structures, governance, and systems.At Sintex BAPL, I led a post-acquisition turnaround, restoring EBITDA from losses to Profit, converting working capital to negative, securing structured funding, and rebuilding control environments from D to A ratings.Across roles, I have held influenced P&L, capital allocation, debt structuring, working capital, governance, and Board engagement — partnering closely with CEOs, promoters, lenders, rating agencies, and investors.What differentiates me is the combination of commercial understanding, capital discipline, and organisation building — having built finance functions, governance frameworks, and teams from scratch twice.I am particularly drawn to growth platforms where disciplined capital deployment and strong institutional foundations determine long-term value creation.
