He began his career at The Economic Times as a financial journalist. He later joined Policybazaar and was part of the team during its growth from a $100 million valuation to a multi-billion-dollar company.
As an investor, Dhall runs the CommsCredible Venture Fund. It has backed startups such as BASIC Home Loan, Sugmya Finance and KhiladiPro. These investments align with initiatives like Viksit Bharat 2047, Digital India, India AI Mission, Skill India and Khelo India.
Dhall has also been active in sports. He played table tennis at the national level and represented India at the World Masters Table Tennis Championships in Rome in 2024. He is set to participate again in Korea in June 2026.
