About the Author
Utkarsh Garg
Founder and Editor, FinEstate
"I started FinEstate because the knowledge that gets traded inside corporate boardrooms — how capital is actually raised, how policy moves the cost of money, how wealth is built and protected — almost never reaches the people whose financial lives depend on it."
Why I Write FinEstate
I have spent the last three years inside Indian real estate, working side-by-side with people who have built and financed businesses for decades — operators who close funding lines on a phone call, who price a launch by reading three macro variables at once, who treat RBI policy as a live input into next quarter's cash flow. Sitting in those rooms taught me something I did not expect: the most useful financial knowledge in India is not in any textbook. It moves through conversations, deal rooms, and investment committees, and it almost never makes it onto the internet.
The internet a salaried Indian actually encounters is split into two unhelpful halves — institutional outlets covering macro too abstractly for the family making this month's home-loan or SIP decision, and retail influencers compressing complex topics into 60-second product pitches with an affiliate link attached. The patient middle layer is missing. FinEstate is my attempt to build it: the same analytical posture I bring to a project-finance model at work, applied to the questions a salaried household is already asking. I write it in my evenings and on weekends — the publication I wished existed when I was learning to navigate this system myself. (More on the publication's mission and standards on the About FinEstate page.)
Background
I am a Manager — Strategy at Tribeca Developers (Mumbai), where I have worked since December 2022. My work centres on project finance, capital structuring, and commercial planning for the firm's flagship developments — including The ARK and Tribeca Highstreet. Across these projects I have led funding rounds, debt restructuring, cash-flow forecasting, and pricing strategy. The real-estate vantage point has been especially valuable for FinEstate: real estate is one of the few sectors where every macroeconomic lever — interest rates, GST, RERA, banking credit conditions, demand-side sentiment — shows up inside the same model.
Before Tribeca, I completed a PGDM at ICFAI Business School, Pune (2023) and a B.Com (Hons) from P.G.D.A.V College, University of Delhi (2021), with prior internships at RE/MAX India and Zomato's Feeding India initiative.
I am not a SEBI-registered Investment Adviser or Research Analyst. FinEstate publishes educational content explaining how the Indian financial system works; it does not recommend specific securities, funds, or transactions.
