The top post has been under the ad-hoc arrangement after Sumit Deb, the then CMD, retired on 28.02.2023. Since then, the senior most Board-member Amitava Mukherjee, Director (Finance) is holding the additional charge of the CMD.

It may be underlined that PESB had selected Sridhar Nadimatla (IAS: 1997: TG), the then CMD of Signgreni Colleries. If well-placed sources are to be believed, the concerned ministry has written to the public-sector head hunter (PESB) to proceed for the selection process afresh.
