Announcement
On 3 November 2026, India Forbes Global Properties announced in New Delhi that it has appointed Mr. Sandeep Sharma, Managing Director of JSB Legal, as Senior Advisor – Finance (Fund Raising).
Role and Responsibilities
In his new capacity, Mr. Sharma will spearhead institutional fundraising initiatives, develop partnerships with private and institutional investors, and provide capital advisory for joint‑venture structuring. These activities are intended to underpin the organisation’s long‑term “Mission 2030” growth vision and support expansion plans across India.
Professional Background
Mr. Sharma brings a blend of public‑finance experience, legal expertise, and institutional relationships. He previously served as Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Dwarka Milk Limited, where he continued efforts to improve the company’s financial footing. Earlier in his career, he worked closely with the late Shri Pranab Mukherjee, former Union Finance Minister and former President of India, during his tenure in the Ministry of Finance.
Policy Contribution and Challenges
One of Mr. Sharma’s notable contributions was his instrumental role in implementing a cattle‑feed financing policy introduced by the Central Bank of India, aimed at strengthening the economics of dairy farming and supporting milk producers. The rollout faced considerable resistance from entrenched interests in the dairy trade, and Mr. Sharma endured intense pressure and intimidation, including threats from elements seeking to obstruct the initiative. He remained steadfast, advancing a more structured approach to cattle‑feed financing and contributing to lasting changes in the dairy industry’s economic framework.
Outlook
Through his appointment, India Forbes Global Properties seeks to combine institutional fundraising expertise, financial acumen, and youthful leadership to enhance its investment strategy and achieve its ambitious growth targets.
