About Me


I currently hold the position of Additional Commissioner Income Tax within the Income Tax Department, Ministry of Finance, Government of India. 

My roots lie in Lucknow, a city I deeply admire for its rich culture and Tehzeeb. My journey to civil services began with four years of rigorous preparation in Delhi, culminating in success on my third attempt with an All India Rank of 250. Along this path, I faced the challenges of four UPSC Interviews, ultimately succeeding in my last two attempts, achieving ranks of 250 and 396, respectively. 

My belief has always been that the lack of proper guidance is a significant hurdle for Civil Services aspirants, and I've experienced this firsthand. I was encouraged to join a specialized course right after high school, which I pursued without a second thought. Years passed with no exam in sight, and I became demotivated. This discouraged me from pursuing engineering, despite being a school topper in PCM subjects. Instead, I enrolled in BA at Lucknow University, choosing Ancient Indian History as one of my subjects. This marked a significant shift from my science background. 

Looking back, I don't regret my choices but empathize with others who face similar challenges due to a lack of proper guidance. My experiences have fueled my determination to assist Civil Services aspirants and provide them with the guidance they need. This blog is my endeavor to support such candidates and share insights from various fields, whether related or unrelated. 

Readers can also expect to find thought-provoking quotes and write-ups on leadership. I highly value the feedback of my blog readers, so please feel free to share your thoughts in the comments or reach out to me at msduggal01@gmail.com. Cheers!
