About
I am currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences at IIIT, Guwahati, a position I have held since January 2024. Prior to this, I served as an Assistant Professor at the XIM University, Bhubaneswar for two years. I did B.Com and M.Com with a specialization in Accounting and Finance from Gauhati University and I am a recipient of the UGC's Junior Research Fellowship in Commerce (NET-JRF). I completed Ph.D. in Finance in 2022 from the Department of Commerce at North Eastern Hill University, Shillong.
I am keen on exploring research gaps and new methodological approaches in the area of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) practices at corporate and country level, corporate disclosure practices, corporate governance, corporate value-creation strategies, financial performance, green finance and intellectual capital. I have published several research papers in esteemed national and international journals indexed in Scopus, ESCI, ABDC and ABS lists. Additionally, I serve as a reviewer for some journals of internationally repute.
