Background

About Dev Pathak

I'm from Ahmedabad and recently became a Chartered Accountant in May 2024, after achieving top ranks throughout my schooling in Gujarat. I'm particularly interested in Financial Planning & Analysis, Finance and making strategic decisions. During my training in Ahmedabad, I gained practical knowledge in auditing, financial reporting, project reporting, and taxation. I especially enjoyed learning about making strategic decisions during this time. Over three years, I conducted audits for various types of businesses, including banks, and handled tax and stock audits. One of my significant achievements was helping a company secure a term loan and cash credit. I also prepared CMA reports for renewing cash credit for different organizations. This project taught me a lot about forecasting, trend analysis, and financial ratios. In financial reporting, I'm experienced in preparing financial statements according to GAAPs. In taxation, I've prepared tax computations for different businesses and individuals and dealt with tax return filings. Outside of work, I have a strong interest in music and sports. I've achieved a Tabla Visharad from ABGMV and play guitar, keyboard, and percussion instruments. I've performed at events like National Conferences of ICAI and school functions, often directing the music. In recognition of my musical abilities, I participated in the National Talent Hunt-Instrumental Competition of ICAI, achieving 1st runner-up in the state and ranking among the top 5 in the western region of India. I have also excelled in cultural competitions like "Bal Pratibha Shodh Spardha" at the state level and facilitated numerous drum circles with substantial participation. In sports, I represented my school in table tennis and participated in the ICAI Sports Competition, earning a spot in the District Level Khel Mahakumbh. These experiences reflect my journey so far, combining my professional achievements with my passion for music and sports.
