He joined Icra in 2020 and is currently President Ratings and Chief Rating Officer of the company.

We are confident his long experience, together with the strong leadership qualities he has demonstrated since joining the company will help him lead Icra into its next phase of growth, Icra Non-Executive Chairman and Independent Director Arun Duggal said.

In his new role, Krishnan will drive Icra’s business strategy, augment organizational capabilities, strengthen the independence and objectivity of the organisation’s culture of analytical excellence and continue to uphold the company’s high standards of corporate governance.
