Purpose of the Role This role exists to stop unbudgeted or inefficient spend before it happens, not to report on it after. The person controls first, then validates. Every cost or expense above the defined threshold gets checked against the approved budget before it is committed. If it doesn't fit, it doesn't go through without a documented reason and a sign-off. The same person also runs management accounting for both entities — tracking actuals against budget by cost center, spotting inefficiencies, and pushing HODs toward corrective action instead of just flagging a number in a report. Core Mandate: Control Before Validation The process this role owns has two stages, and the order matters. Control Before any cost or expense commitment — PO, contract, hire, capex, opex line — is finalized, it is checked against the approved budget for that cost center and period. If it's within budget, it moves. If it's not, it's held, and the HOD either justifies the exception or resubmits within budget. Nothing above the defined threshold gets committed without this check.



Validate Once spend is approved and moving, the role continues to check whether it was the right spend, not just an approved one. This is where inefficiencies get caught — a cost that fits inside the budget line but shouldn't have been incurred at all, or should have been structured differently. Key Responsibilities Design and own the budget control workflow across Ishan Technologies and Saksham AI — approval thresholds, sign-off chains, escalation path to CFO for exceptions. Check every cost/expense commitment above the defined threshold against the approved budget before it is released for payment or contracting. Track actuals against budget by cost center and HOD, monthly at minimum, and flag variances as they emerge rather than at quarter close. Identify inefficiencies in spend — duplicate vendors, avoidable overruns, mis-costed projects, recurring exceptions — and ask HODs the right questions to find the
