The Reserve Bank of India has approved the reappointment of Subrat Mohanty as Executive Director of Axis Bank. Mohanty, who currently holds the role of Whole-Time Director on the bank's board, will continue in his position for a fresh three-year term.

The reappointment runs from August 17, 2026 to August 16, 2029. The bank's board had approved the renewal earlier; RBI's sign-off completes the regulatory requirement for whole-time director appointments at private sector banks.

Mohanty's continued tenure reflects Axis Bank's confidence in his leadership as the lender navigates India's evolving credit and digital banking landscape. His role as Executive Director places him among the bank's senior management overseeing operations and strategy.

RBI approval is mandatory for all whole-time director appointments and reappointments at private banks under banking regulation. The clearance formally extends Mohanty's mandate and signals stability in the bank's governance structure.
