Co-founder, NYVO
Kshitij brings the rigour of strategy consulting to the way Indian families should think about insurance. B.Tech in Chemical Engineering from IIT Delhi. MBA from IIM Ahmedabad as Institute Scholar (top 5%). Cleared all three levels of the CFA examination. He worked at Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Essex Lake Group, then on the strategy team at slice, where he developed one of India's earliest need-based insurance mapping systems. At NYVO, he leads the analytical framework behind plan recommendations and the methodology that makes claim reliability measurable rather than marketed.
Why NYVO
When Kshitij's elder brother moved abroad, his parents lost their corporate health insurance overnight. Searching for a replacement, he found a market full of confusing jargon, conflicting reviews, and sales-driven recommendations. Kshitij wanted a solution that offered transparent, fact-based advice — not marketing pitches. NYVO is the answer he and Harsh built together.
