Infibeam Avenues Limited has announced two significant leadership decisions, including the elevation of Mr. Vishwas Ambalal Patel as the company’s next Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, and the appointment of Dr. Neharika Vohra, Professor at IIM Ahmedabad, as a Non-Executive Independent Director. Both appointments were approved in the company’s Board meeting held on December 11, 2025.
According to the filing, Vishwas Patel—currently Joint Managing Director—will assume his new role as MD & CEO for a five-year term, subject to shareholder approval. Patel is widely recognised in India’s fintech industry and serves as Chairman of the Payments Council of India. The company confirmed that he is not debarred from holding office and has no inter-se relationship with other Directors.
Alongside his elevation, the Board has appointed Dr. Neharika Vohra as an Additional Woman Director (Non-Executive & Independent) for a tenure of five years, starting December 11, 2025. Dr. Vohra is a senior academic with extensive experience in organisational behaviour, leadership, and diversity, and previously served as the founding Vice-Chancellor of the Delhi Skill & Entrepreneurship University. The filing clarified that she too has no inter-se relationships and is not restricted by any regulatory authority from serving on the Board.
The appointments reflect Infibeam Avenues’ continued focus on strengthening board governance and enhancing leadership capabilities as the company scales its technology, fintech and digital services portfolio. Both changes are subject to approval by shareholders via postal ballot.
