Who among the following was appointed as the new Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) Chairman in February 2025, becoming the first serving Finance Secretary to assume the role?
Tuhin Kanta Pandey
The correct answer is Tuhin Kanta Pandey.
Tuhin Kanta Pandey, a 1987-batch IAS officer, was appointed the new Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) in February 2025. He became the first serving Finance Secretary to take charge of SEBI, succeeding Madhabi Puri Buch as the 11th SEBI Chairman.
Ajay Tyagi is wrong; he was an earlier SEBI Chairman (2017-2022), not the February 2025 appointee.
Sunil Sanghai is wrong; he is an investment banker and was not appointed SEBI Chairman.
Sanjay Malhotra is wrong; he was appointed Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, not Chairman of SEBI.
Hence, the SEBI Chairman appointed in February 2025 was Tuhin Kanta Pandey.
