Kajaria Ceramics Appoints Ipininder Singh as Group CDIO, Atul Nigam Ceases Senior Management Role
Kajaria Ceramics appointed Mr. Ipininder Singh as Group Chief Digital and Information Officer (CDIO) effective April 23, 2026. Mr. Atul Nigam will cease to be Senior Management Personnel from the same date but will continue as VP (IT). Singh has 24+ years of experience in digital transformation.
The appointment of a Group CDIO indicates a strategic focus on digital transformation within the company, which can have a medium-term impact on operations and strategy. The change in reporting structure for IT personnel is also a notable organizational shift.
The announcement details a change in senior management personnel, which is a routine corporate action. While the appointment of a new CDIO with extensive experience could be seen positively, the cessation of another senior management role balances the sentiment.
Kajaria Ceramics Limited has announced a significant change in its senior management structure. The Board of Directors, through a circular resolution passed on April 21, 2026, approved the appointment of Mr. Ipininder Singh as the Group Chief Digital and Information Officer (CDIO) of the Company. This appointment is effective from April 23, 2026.
Consequent to this new appointment and a revised reporting structure, Mr. Atul Nigam, who previously held the position of VP (IT), will cease to be part of the Senior Management Personnel of the Company, also effective April 23, 2026. However, Mr. Nigam will continue in his role as VP (IT) and will now report to the newly appointed Group CDIO.
Mr. Ipininder Singh brings over 24 years of extensive experience in driving Enterprise Transformation through Digital Innovation. He holds an MBA from IIT Delhi and a B. Tech in Electrical Engineering. His previous roles include significant contributions at organizations such as Havells India and Convergys India. In his most recent position at Dalmia Bharat, he was instrumental in shaping the digital strategy, aligning it with technology investments and business objectives.
