Dhanlaxmi Bank Reappoints Rajan Sleeba as Head of Human Resources for Two Years

Dhanlaxmi Bank Limited has reappointed Rajan Sleeba as Head of Human Resources for a two-year term, effective August 11, 2026. The decision was taken by the board at its meeting on July 29, 2026, signaling a continuity-minded approach to the bank’s people strategy as it navigates a dynamic banking landscape.

Rajan Sleeba brings more than four decades of banking experience, including 21 years with Dhanlaxmi Bank Limited.
