About Kapil Makhija

I am a Partner in Consulting at KPMG in India and my work focuses on providing Technology Consulting and Enablement, helping organisations design & deliver cloud‑led transformation programs that are scalable, resilient and aligned to long‑term business outcomes. Over nearly 3 decades, I have advised enterprises on navigating complex technology decisions across cloud platforms, enterprise systems and large transformation programs. My experience spans building and scaling technology for businesses, shaping partner ecosystems and working closely with boards and CXOs to translate technology investments into measurable impact. I have had the privilege of leading high‑impact engagements across industries such as banking, telecom, manufacturing, media, education, and government. Prior to joining KPMG in India, I spent around 14 years at Oracle, most recently as Vice President and Head of the Technology Cloud business. In this role, I was responsible for driving growth across enterprise, public sector and mid‑market clients, while building high‑performing teams and partner networks. Earlier in my career, I held leadership roles at Hewlett‑Packard & the Reliance Group, experiences that shaped my understanding of enterprise scale, operational complexity and execution discipline. Clients typically seek my expertise. when they are dealing with questions around modernising legacy environments, making cloud investments accountable to business results and building operating models that can sustain continuous change. I believe successful transformation requires clarity of intent, strong governance, and consistent execution, especially in regulated and complex environments. At KPMG, I work across the firm’s multidisciplinary model to bring together technology, industry insight, risk and governance perspectives. This enables us to address transformation challenges that go beyond technology implementation and into operating effectiveness and value realisation. I value long‑term client relationships, thoughtful problem solving and practical leadership grounded in real business contexts.
