Later in 1994, Nasar began his career as a government employee in the Kerala Health Department after obtaining his postgraduate degree. Through his dedication to public service and hard work, he earned several promotions, eventually rising to the role of Deputy Collector in the State Civil Service by 2006.

It was in 2015 that Nasar was recognized as Kerala’s top Deputy Collector, which led to his promotion to IAS officer in 2017. He served as the Housing Commissioner for the Government of Kerala before becoming the District Collector of Kollam in 2019.
