Mr. Ghosh will succeed Anuj Tyagi, who has led the organisation in recent years. The decision was approved by the company’s Board of Directors, and the appointment will take effect from April 16, 2026, subject to approvals from the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) and other necessary clearances.
Ghosh brings more than 30 years of experience in financial services and insurance, including over 16 years in the general insurance sector. He joined HDFC ERGO in 2016 following the integration of L&T General Insurance with the company.
Since May 2025, Ghosh has been serving as the Executive Director at HDFC ERGO.
During his tenure, Ghosh has worked across several business areas including retail insurance, commercial lines, crop insurance, underwriting, reinsurance strategy, claims management and technology initiatives. He also played a key role in the company’s integration efforts following acquisitions.
These included the integration of L&T General Insurance and later Apollo Munich Health Insurance, which helped strengthen the company’s operational capabilities and expand its presence in the health insurance segment.
Commenting on the appointment, Keki M Mistry, Chairman of HDFC ERGO, said Ghosh has been instrumental in the company’s growth and strategic development.
“Parthanil brings in extensive industry knowledge, deep operational insight and strong strategic leadership to the role. He has been a key contributor to the Company’s progress and success in recent years, enabling HDFC ERGO to strengthen its market position and in building a culture focused on customer trust, technical excellence and sustainable growth,” he said.
“The Board is confident that he will build on that success story and take the company to the next level. At the same time, we thank Anuj Tyagi for his outstanding work and wish him the best in his future entrepreneurial pursuits,” the Chairman added.
