Anup Bagchi Takes Charge as HDFC Bank CEO Amid Governance and Growth Challenges
Anup Bagchi assumed charge as HDFC Bank's CEO on October 27, succeeding Sashidhar Jagdishan amid challenges including restoring investor confidence, stabilizing senior management, and reviving growth. The bank reported a 4.7% year-on-year profit increase in Q2 FY27, but faced scrutiny after former chairman Atanu Chakraborty's resignation citing ethical concerns. Bagchi's priorities include strengthening governance, addressing controversies, and improving market perception as HDFC Bank's shares have declined this fiscal year.
