Uniparts India Limited has announced a leadership shift in its finance function, with Chief Financial Officer Rohit Maheshwari resigning from the company for personal reasons. His departure will take effect at the close of business on March 12, 2026. In parallel, the board has approved the appointment of Sandeep Taneja as the Group Chief Financial Officer, a move that will be effective from March 16, 2026, following recommendations from the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the Audit Committee.

Rohit Maheshwari’s resignation marks the end of his tenure as the company’s CFO, a role he has held as a key managerial leader. The company did not disclose additional terms of his exit beyond the stated timeline, but the announcement underscores a controlled transition within the finance leadership as the company continues to navigate its multi-market footprint.

On the incoming side, Sandeep Taneja brings more than 25 years of diverse global finance experience, with formal credentials as a Chartered Accountant and a licensed CPA, complemented by an MBA. His recent role was Finance Director at Gates India, where he oversaw financial operations for industrial and automotive businesses across multiple plants in India. Earlier stints include leadership positions at Ingersoll Rand India, Corning in India and the United States, and advisory experience with Ernst & Young. The board’s appointment signals a focus on strengthening financial strategy, governance, and cross-border execution for the group.

Taken together, the moves reflect Uniparts India’s emphasis on continuity and experienced leadership at the helm of finance as it pursues its growth agenda across a global operating footprint.
