BharatPe’s revenue from operations grew 182 per cent to Rs 904 crore in FY23, while the company’s loss before tax narrowed to Rs 886 crore during the period from Rs 5,594 crore. According to the company, reducing loss before tax from Rs 5594 crore to Rs 886 crore is a big improvement.
Fintech firm BharatPe has made several major changes in the senior management of its payments and lending unit vertical. The company has promoted Sandeep Indurkar as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of payments vertical – Resilient Payments Pvt Ltd, sources said on Monday. Indurkar was previously the Chief Business Officer of Banking and Alliances of the company. Apart from this, Rajish Raghavan, CEO of BharatPe unit Jillion (earlier Payback India), will now take charge of the company’s device business. Now Kohinoor Biswas, head of consumer lending sector, will take over Jillion.
These three senior officers will report to Nalin Negi, Chief Financial Officer and Interim CEO of BharatPe. However, there has been no change in the merchant app vertical. An email sent to BharatPe seeking comment on these changes did not elicit any response.
