Neeraj Arora quits Paytm, firm onboards ex-Sebi official Rajeev Agarwal

Former Chief Business Officer of WhatsApp Neeraj Arora has quit the board of the fintech firm One97 Communications, owner of Paytm brand, citing pre-occupation and personal commitments, a regulatory filing said on Monday.

Arora had quit the Paytm board earlier in early 2018 but rejoined it before the company’s IPO.

“The Board, at its meeting held today i.e., June 17, 2024, took note of the resignation tendered by Shri Neeraj Arora, Non-Executive Independent Director of the Company on account of pre-occupation and other personal commitments. He will accordingly cease to be a Non-Executive Independent Director, with effect from the closure of business hours on June 17, 2024,” Paytm said in the regulatory filing.
