About Me
Know Me More
I'm Keshav Mittal,
Hi! I’m Keshav Mittal, a senior at La Martiniere College, Lucknow, with a deep passion for business, economics, finance, and social impact. My journey revolves around applying data-driven strategies, financial principles, and technological solutions to solve real-world challenges.
As the Founder of Gulliyans of Lucknow, I have worked to uplift 400+ artisans across three states, increasing their revenues by 110% through financial literacy workshops, digital marketing, and a trilingual legal toolkit in collaboration with NABARD, Rotary Club, and the Bar Council of Uttar Pradesh. This initiative reflects my dedication to fostering economic empowerment and sustainable business practices.
I currently serve as the College Captain, leading 4,000+ students in various academic and leadership initiatives. I spearheaded a grievance-redressal system that resolved 500+ student concerns and enhanced digital outreach efforts, increasing engagement by 250%. Additionally, as Debating Vice-Captain, I have mentored over 300 students while securing 50+ national-level wins in debating and MUNs.
Academically, I secured National Rank 3 (99.4%) in my ICSE Exams and achieved National Rank 2 in the National Economics Olympiad (8,000 participants). My research on behavioral finance, mentored by the Principal of ICCMRT, has been published in Questioz, presented at ISER International, and submitted to UC Berkeley’s BEAM’25. Through this, I have explored the intersection of finance, psychology, and decision-making, focusing on how cognitive biases impact investment behavior.
In the finance and entrepreneurship space, I have worked on multiple projects and internships. As a Research Fellow at Enactus (Hindu College, Delhi University), I conducted equity research on Hindustan Unilever & Tata Motors, contributing to investment analysis reports. At CapGrow Capital, I optimized $5,000+ investment portfolios, increasing projected returns by 25%. I also interned at Shoppers Stop (Fortune 500), where I boosted sales by 15% through inventory optimization and marketing analytics.
Beyond finance, I am passionate about sustainability and social impact. I led GreenCycle, a circular economy initiative that recycled over 2 tons of waste, raised $1,500 for food drives, and secured pledges from 10+ institutions for sustainable waste management.
My work lies at the intersection of business, economics, finance, and technology, and I aspire to create scalable, data-driven solutions that drive innovation while fostering economic sustainability.

Whether it’s a complex policy debate or a philosophical discussion, Keshav has this incredible knack for breaking down ideas, building strong arguments, and delivering them with confidence and clarity.
