He joined RIL around 14 years ago after spending nearly two decades at banking giant Citibank. He had been Reliance’s joint CFO since 2011. Agarwal had been RIL CFO since 2005.
Venkatachari is known as a calm and collected professional with proven mettle. He played a key role in the largest ever foreign currency bond issuance by an Indian company when Reliance raised $4 billion in 2022. He was vital to the Mukesh Ambani-led effort to turn RIL into a zero-debt company.
