In the past one week, the stock price of the company more-than-doubled or zoomed 109 per cent after its board approved the appointment of Kartik Jain as the company's new Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (MD and CEO) on Monday.

The company said Jain’s appointment as MD and CEO will re-orient the brand’s customer strategy and enhance operational efficiency.
Prior to joining Shriram AMC, Jain headed product, platforms and digibank at DBS Bank India’s consumer business group in Mumbai. He also served as CMO at HDFC Bank and led marketing and eChannel at ICICI Lombard General Insurance. At KPMG, Jain advised clients in the UK and Europe on eBusiness strategy and process re-engineering.
