An alumnus of Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani, and Xavier Institute of Management, Jagdev was a director with Pricewaterhouse Coopers, where he served as an advisor to automotive and industrial equipment companies on market entry, and growth and revenue enhancement programmes.

A veteran of about 15 years, Jagdev had also held different positions at Accenture Management Consulting and Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India. At Deloitte, he was part of its global innovation network, tasked with developing new advisory services.

“With the new guidelines on bankruptcy code, many consulting firms, which are working in the field of turnaround and strategic planning and management, are increasing their bench strength to cater to this new class of work,” said a director from one of the big four accounting firms.

“Apart from KPMG, PWC, Deloitte and EY many foreign as well as domestic boutique firms are competing in the sector along with law firms, including AZB Partners, Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas and DSK Legal,” he added.
