Son of a teacher and an accountant from Haryana — Rahul Yadav grew up understanding that financial discipline and education are the two most powerful forces in a family's trajectory.

After completing a B.Tech in Information Technology from IPU (GGSIPU), he pursued an MBA in Strategy & Marketing from IIM Amritsar — combining engineering precision with management thinking into a career built at the intersection of technology and financial services.

Over 8+ years, Rahul has operated across the full sales lifecycle in fintech: from cold outreach to international RFPs, from product scoping to client delivery. He has closed deals worth ₹25Cr+ across the industry, including a ₹5Cr international bank deal and a $1M win through competitive PSU Bank RFP — while also generating the lead that became a company's maiden institutional fundraise.

Today, as Head of Sales at Vijya Fintech, he is an equity and ESOP holder shaping how India's mutual fund distributors adopt technology to grow their practices. He writes, mentors, and speaks on MFD growth, enterprise B2B sales, and the operator-to-founder transition.
