Who among the following was conferred the Padma Bhushan in 2026 for contributions to the field of Trade and Industry ?
Uday Kotak
The Padma awards (Padma Vibhushan, Padma Bhushan and Padma Shri) are announced every year on the eve of Republic Day. The 2026 awards were announced on 25 January 2026.
In the Trade and Industry category of 2026, the Padma Bhushan went to Uday Kotak (Maharashtra), founder of Kotak Mahindra Bank, recognised for building one of India's leading private-sector banks.
Nalli Kuppuswami Chetti and Pankaj Patel received the Padma Bhushan in 2025, and Osamu Suzuki was given the Padma Vibhushan posthumously in 2025, so none of them is a 2026 Padma Bhushan awardee.
Uday Kotak option is correct.
