Sourav Majumdar is a seasoned financial journalist with nearly three decades of experience, having led some of India’s most respected publications. A first-class graduate in Economics from Kolkata’s prestigious St. Xavier’s College, he began his media career at The Financial Express before moving to Business Standard, where he made his mark as a star reporter covering the banking and corporate sectors. Rising swiftly through the ranks, he was appointed Resident Editor in Kolkata — one of the youngest to hold that position at the time.
Sourav later went on to head the Indian editions of three of the world’s leading business magazines — Entrepreneur, Forbes India, and Fortune India — becoming the only Indian to achieve this rare distinction.
Beyond journalism, Sourav is a passionate cinephile with eclectic taste, equally at home watching Bollywood blockbusters, Hollywood epics, or the finely crafted masterpieces of auteurs like Satyajit Ray and Jean-Luc Godard.
