The Board of Directors has approved the appointment of Mr. Amit Arora as CEO & Managing Director for a 5-year term effective from 24th August 2026, subject to shareholder approval. This appointment fills the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. R. Krishnakumar. Mr. Amit Arora, aged 43 years, brings over two decades of cement industry experience and is currently Plant Head at Vicat Group's Kalaburgi Cement. He previously held leadership roles at ACC Limited and Holcim Group, with expertise in plant operations, P&L management, supply chain, and digital transformation. He holds a B.Tech in mechanical engineering and an MBA from IIM Indore.
The appointment of an experienced external leader with deep cement industry expertise could provide fresh operational oversight. However, the departure of the prior CEO/MD raises questions about leadership continuity and the reasons behind the change.
