— The Editor

Journalism for the thinking class.

Maya Dhwani is an independent journalist and the founding editor of ArthBytes. Previously a financial reporter for eight years across newsrooms in Mumbai and Delhi, she now hosts the channel's flagship longform investigations.

Her work focuses on the intersection of capital, policy, and corporate power in India — documents, data, and the questions no one is asking out loud. When she isn't chasing sources, she's obsessing over balance sheets and second-read coffee.

“India's story is being written in boardrooms, in court filings, in unsent emails. Our job is to read all three — and translate.”
