MUMBAI: When a conglomerate with IPOs on the radar and diversified ambitions across durables, prefab, and packaging needs a steady hand on the financial tiller, it turns to a pro. Epack Group has done just that by appointing Narayan Lodha as its executive director & group chief financial officer, effective immediately.
The move signals Epack’s intent to bolster its financial firepower as it deepens its presence across consumer durables, prefabricated construction, EPS-based packaging, and petrochemicals. Lodha, a CA & company secretary, brings over 25 years of experience in corporate finance, capital markets, and strategic planning.
He steps into the role with an extensive resume: Lodha previously held senior posts at Vikram Solar, Inox Wind, Ravindra Energy, and Indian Energy Exchange. His track record includes leading IPOs, private equity placements, and debt raises. He also played critical roles in turnaround strategies and capital optimisation in India’s manufacturing and renewables sectors.
“We are delighted to welcome Narayan to the Epack family. His depth of experience in financial strategy and capital markets will be invaluable as we embark on our next phase of accelerated growth. His leadership will help us stay agile, resilient, and aligned with our long-term vision”, said Epack Group group chairman & whole-time director Bajrang Bothra.
Lodha’s appointment comes on the heels of robust year-on-year growth for Epack Group. Epack Durable is already listed, and Epack Prefab Technologies has filed its Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) in preparation for a planned IPO. In this context, Lodha’s mandate is clear: reinforce governance, optimise capital deployment, and steer financial strategy to power Epack’s ascent.
“I am excited to join Epack Group at such a dynamic time in its journey. The Group has built a solid reputation for innovation, agility, and operational excellence. I look forward to working closely with the leadership team to strengthen our financial systems, support strategic growth, and create long-term value for all stakeholders”, said Lodha.
His leadership is expected to support a sweeping transformation, as Epack Group scales its ambitions with a sharper focus on fiscal discipline and stakeholder trust.
