    Over 15 years, I've led finance and enterprise automation at startups and large organizations — Lots Wholesale, INDmoney, MakeMyTrip, Goibibo, and Lodha & Co. At INDmoney, I architected one of India's most complex fintech ERP implementations: a multi-entity, multi-currency ERPNext rollout for a 20M+ user platform.

    Across every company, I saw the same problem: finance and tech teams were capable but misaligned. Finance couldn't translate compliance and process realities into technical requirements, and tech teams optimized for delivery, not outcomes. ERP programs looked successful on paper but failed to speed closes, improve controls, or deliver actionable insights.

    I started solving this on weekends — automating AR workflows for a quick-commerce company, reconciling 14 million SAP records for a power utility, and building finance systems for startups. Every engagement confirmed it: this gap was everywhere, and organizations of all sizes were paying the price.

    XLURSELF, incorporated in 2018, was built to fix this. In early 2026, I left INDmoney to focus on it full-time. Today, we combine finance expertise, tech execution, and AI agents to accelerate system design, analysis, and delivery — achieving in days what traditionally required much larger teams.

    A Senior CA who speaks Finance and Tech

    Every engagement is led by a senior finance professional with hands-on tech expertise — no handoffs, no junior intermediaries.

    AI-powered delivery

    GPT-4, Claude & n8n agents accelerate every engagement — more depth, faster turnaround, lower cost.

    Here's the pattern I kept seeing

    What is SEZ? We are not aware of this — it is outside our domain and not covered in the current scope. Please share a detailed note along with a Change Request ticket.
    Neither side was wrong. They just didn't speak the same language.
    So I built the missing middle

    One expert. Two languages. Zero gap.

    If your ERP project delivered a system but not a finance solution — or consultants designed processes your team can’t realistically run — the problem isn’t the team. It’s the design. Let’s talk.

    How We Work

    Finance Clarity. Tech Precision. Business Impact.

    Whether it's a small automation tool or a full ERP rollout — the same rigorous discovery, design and outcome-validation process applies.

    Our 3 non-negotiables — on every engagement, regardless of size

    Understand Before Building

    We never write a line of code without a full discovery — current workflow, team size, tools in use, frequency, pain points, and the exact outcome you expect.

    Propose Beyond the Ask

    We design what you actually need — not just what you requested. We extend scope, flag future risks, and build in controls and scalability from day one.

    Validate the Outcome

    After delivery, we schedule a management review call to verify KPIs are met and the solution is performing as designed — not just marked 'done' and closed.

    Case Study 2

    Our approach for this type

    1

    Understand the workflow end-to-end — team members, task allocation, tools used, frequency and current challenges

    2

    Map every manual step and identify what can be automated, validated or controlled

    3

    Build a foolproof solution: dashboards, auto-triggers, validations, access control and audit logs

    4

    Continuous support through bugs and change requests until the solution is stable

    5

    Management review call — confirm KPIs met, measure time saved and errors eliminated
