Building India Smarter

January 2026 \ News \ INNOVATION | GROWTH | LEADERSHIP

In an India reshaping itself through infrastructure build-out, supply chain realignment, and global capital flows, Neeraj Bansal, Partner and Head India Global, KPMG in India, has emerged as a trusted market-maker at the intersection of policy, industry, and international investment. With close to 30 years of professional experience, Bansal’s work today spans real estate, infrastructure, manufacturing, energy, logistics, and international trade, positioning him firmly within India’s growth priorities rather than any single geography. At KPMG, he plays a central role in advising multinational corporations, Indian conglomerates, family offices, and institutional investors on market entry, expansion, capital deployment, and operational transformation. His approach is deeply client-centric, combining strategic clarity with hands-on execution, and grounded in the belief that sustainable growth must align commercial outcomes with long-term national development goals.

India 2047: From Aspiration to Execution

At the core of Neeraj Bansal’s work is a clear belief: India’s journey to 2047 will be determined not by ambition alone but by the quality of its execution.

Whether advising on industrialised construction, supply chain resilience, digital transformation, trade facilitation, or investment strategy, his focus remains consistent—building systems that are scalable, resilient, and globally competitive.

“India’s growth story is not only about scale,” he says. “It is about quality, sustainability, and credibility. By aligning capital, capability, and collaboration, India can compete confidently on the world stage.”

For Bansal, this also requires a strong sense of ownership—leaders who think beyond roles and titles and take responsibility for outcomes rather than tasks. It is this mindset, he believes, that allows individuals and institutions to grow with change rather than be overwhelmed by it.

As India accelerates towards its development milestones, Bansal’s work continues to bridge global capital with domestic opportunity—positioning him not just as an advisor to growth but as a contributor to the institutions that will sustain it.
