In a move designed to deepen its customer-facing leadership, Eveready Industries India Limited announced that Indranath Roy, currently Senior Vice President – B2C Sales, has been designated as Senior Management Personnel with effect from October 31, 2026. The decision, taken at a board meeting, signals the company’s intent to bolster its go-to-market engine through experienced leadership.
Roy brings nearly 28 years in the consumer goods arena, counting stints at Mondelez India (Cadbury) and RPSG Consumer (Too Yumm). Before joining Eveready, he served as Director – Sales at SIC Cello India, Mumbai. He holds a graduation from Calcutta University, an Executive General Management Program from IIM Bangalore, and a PG Diploma in Business Management (Marketing) from the Institute of Modern Management.
This internal elevation comes as Eveready seeks to sharpen its B2C strategy across traditional and new channels, a priority for a brand known for its dry cell batteries, rechargeable options, flashlights and lighting products. While the company has not disclosed a formal plan in this notice, Roy’s track record suggests a focus on expanding direct-to-consumer engagement and channel partnerships.
Industry observers note that promoting from within preserves institutional knowledge and sends a message about continuity and stability at the leadership level as Eveready navigates a competitive landscape and evolving consumer expectations.
