Among the best known financial journalists in India, in 2006, Ms Dalal was awarded the Padma Shri, India government’s third highest civilian award, based on her outstanding investigative journalism since the early 1990s.
Her 35 years of investigative reporting spans the Harshad Mehta scam, CR Bhansali scam, and expose of Enron among others. She was the Financial Editor at The Times of India and has also written for Business Standard, The Economic Times, Indian Express and Financial Express among others.
She served as a member of SEBI’s primary market advisory committee, the Narayana Murthy Corporate Governance Committee and as a member of Investor Education and the Protection Fund of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs .
She has co-authored the best-selling book ‘The Scam: From Harshad Mehta to Ketan Parekh’ and a biography of A D Shroff, a Titan of Finance.
P.S. Her writing is one of the major reasons that has influenced my liking for current business affairs. Then came the stage of obsession. And now it's more of a passion. Many of my students and well wishers say that I've made it into a subject.
