Shree Digvijay Cement's Board appointed Mr. Amit Arora as CEO & Managing Director effective 24th August 2026 for a 5-year term, subject to shareholder approval. The appointment was made to fill a vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. R. Krishnakumar, who held the position before. Mr. Arora, 43 years old, currently serves as Plant Head at Vicat Group's Kalaburgi Cement and brings over 20 years of cement industry experience, including previous roles at ACC Limited and Holcim Group. He holds a B.Tech in mechanical engineering and an MBA from IIM Indore. The appointment was recommended by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee.
The appointment of an experienced external candidate with a strong cement industry background provides leadership continuity. However, the resignation of the prior CEO (Mr. R. Krishnakumar) may raise questions about the reason for departure. Shareholders will vote on the appointment at a future meeting.
