HDFC Bank names Jimmy Tata executive director, subject to RBI approval

V. Srinivasa Rangan is set for reappointment as executive director from Nov. 23, 2026 to Nov. 22, 2027.

Rangan runs human resources, legal, group oversight, investment banking, information security, ethics, fraud and vigilance. He was formerly an HDFC Ltd executive director and chief financial officer.

HDFC Bank said it has moved to start a CEO succession process, submitting two preferred candidates to regulators for a three-year term.

The bank said the board also backed adding one more whole-time director role, lifting the count to four, to strengthen oversight and succession planning.

Jimmy Tata has been nominated as executive director for three years, effective on regulatory clearance.

Tata is HDFC Bank’s chief credit officer. He previously served as chief risk officer, led corporate banking and joined the bank in 1994.
