ESG Assurance & Audit Leadership

Anares Analytics LLP was founded by Pankaj Shah with the vision of delivering independent, evidence-based assurance that strengthens governance, transparency, and stakeholder confidence.

With over 15 years of experience spanning corporate finance, internal audit, regulatory compliance, risk management, and strategic business transformation, he has established a practice focused on integrating financial integrity with sustainable business performance.

Under his leadership, the firm adopts a structured assurance methodology aligned with globally recognized ESG assurance principles — emphasizing independence, professional skepticism, risk-based assessment, materiality evaluation, robust evidence collection, and transparent reporting.

Rather than limiting assurance to compliance verification, Silversix Consultant evaluates the effectiveness of governance structures, environmental and social controls, risk management frameworks, internal control systems, and the reliability of ESG disclosures. The approach is designed to give stakeholders confidence that sustainability commitments are supported by measurable processes, documented evidence, and effective governance.

The leadership vision is centred on helping organizations transition from compliance-driven reporting to assurance-driven sustainability — enabling boards, investors, regulators, and other stakeholders to rely on ESG information that is accurate, consistent, auditable, and aligned with internationally accepted assurance and reporting frameworks.
