About me

Hi, I’m Krishna Prasad Burnwal, a Chartered Accountant with over 7 years of overall experience including ~ 2 years of post-qualification experience spanning Controllership, Business Finance, and Revenue Assurance. I've had the privilege of building my finance career in some of the most dynamic environments, including Zetwerk, United Breweries Limited (Heineken), and top-tier CA firms. Currently, I serve as an Assistant Manager – Business Finance at Zetwerk, where I lead initiatives across P&L finalization, monthly closings, and MIS reporting. My role involves delivering data-backed business insights, collaborating directly with CXOs and co-founders on critical financial strategies such as Annual Operating Plans (AOPs), Capex evaluations, and Forex hedging, resulting in meaningful cost optimizations. Previously at United Breweries Ltd. (Heineken), I contributed to state-level pricing strategies, Capex feasibility assessments, and market analyses that fed directly into key decision-making at the senior leadership level. I also gained hands-on exposure to internal controls, entity-level governance, and monthly reporting of the Heineken group entity. My career began with a strong grounding in GST compliance, advisory, and litigation, where I led high-value refunds and process overhauls, This was complemented by extensive experience in due diligence, internal audits, and statutory audits during my articleship. I’m known for combining financial expertise with strategic thinking, driving insights that connect the dots between numbers and business outcomes. I thrive in fast-paced, cross-functional settings where collaboration and agility are key. Let's connect and explore the possibilities of collaboration, learning and mutual growth!
