About Ashwit Raj

I’m currently pursuing the MBA at IIM Indore, and one thing that has stayed constant through most of what I’ve done is curiosity. I’m drawn to understanding how things work, whether that is a business model, a customer decision, a product experience, or the operations behind something that looks simple from the outside.That curiosity has taken different forms over the years. In school, I built an Android app to help classmates share contact information and access event photos more easily. Later, at TagBit, I pitched to 500+ people in person and built relationships with high-value clients in Dubai, which taught me a great deal about communication, trust, and reading people in real time. During my consulting internship at iDeCK, I worked on financial models for Solar PV projects across costing, capex, funding schedules, and metrics such as FCFE, FCFF, NPV, and IRR. My analysis led to a 10.667% adjustment in USD costing, reducing the project value from INR 215.6 crore to INR 194.29 crore and improving the quality of financial inputs used for decision-making.At IIM Indore, I also founded BookBridges, a platform to help underprivileged students access used books, which has touched around lives. That experience taught me what it means to take ownership of a problem and build something useful with limited resources. Outside work and academics, Indian classical music has been an equally important part of my life. I hold a Sangeet Prabhakar from Prayag Sangeet Samiti, Allahabad, and music has shaped my appreciation for discipline, patience, and steady improvement over time.Consulting appeals to me because it brings together many of the things I enjoy most: solving messy problems, thinking clearly under ambiguity, learning across industries, and understanding what really drives outcomes. I’m especially interested in opportunities where I can bring curiosity, structured thinking, and a willingness to learn, while working on problems that matter.
