About Doneil Shah

I am passionate about working in a challenging environment and contributing to the business world. I am keen to know functioning of various business and want to explore financial and strategic side of businesses. I am currently working with Asian Paints in Corporate Audit where my role involves understanding the Company’s processes, identification of risk areas and suggesting mitigating controls. Previously, I have worked with B S R & Co. LLP (KPMG India) in the assurance vertical which included statutory audits, group audits and tax audits. I have done my MSc in International Business and Strategy from Lancaster University giving me insights into globalisation and business trends in the current business world. Prior to this, I have completed my Chartered Accountancy helping me to understand accounting and reporting issues facing businesses. I have gained experience in the fields of Auditing- Indian GAAP, Ind AS, Business Advisory, and Tax Compliances. In my free time I like exploring new places and enjoy reading.
