Karnataka Bank has submitted an updated brief profile of Mr. Parthasarathi Periaswamy, who was appointed as an Additional Director in the category of Non-Executive Independent Director on July 29, 2026. The update, filed with the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited on July 30, 2026, serves to provide better clarity on Mr. Periaswamy’s professional background, specifically correcting the timeline and nature of his previous engagements with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) ecosystem.

The disclosure is made pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The bank’s Company Secretary & Compliance Officer, Sham K Kanathila, signed the filing, which references the initial appointment letter dated July 29, 2026. The appointment remains subject to shareholder approval under the SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015 and the Companies Act, 2013. Mr. Periaswamy has been appointed for a term of four years.

Profile Corrections

The updated profile clarifies that Mr. Periaswamy was formerly a Consultant to the RBI Innovation Hub, rather than currently serving in that capacity. Additionally, it specifies that his tenure as a Board Member of Indian Financial Technology and Allied Services (IFTAS), an RBI subsidiary, occurred between 2019 and 2021. These corrections refine the understanding of his recent governance roles within the financial sector.

Mr. Periaswamy brings over three decades of experience in technology and cybersecurity. As the former Chief Information Security Officer and Chief General Manager (IT) at the RBI, he played a pivotal role in shaping national cybersecurity frameworks and modernizing mission-critical infrastructure. His expertise includes strengthening resilience across the banking ecosystem and advising private sector banks on cybersecurity governance and crisis management.

Governance Impact

The appointment strengthens Karnataka Bank’s board composition by adding a senior technology leader with deep regulatory experience. Mr. Periaswamy’s background at IDRBT, where he served as Chief Technology Officer, involved directing IT infrastructure and the national threat intelligence platform (IB CART). He also convened the CISO Forum and organized national cyber drills to foster preparedness among banks. The bank confirmed that Mr. Periaswamy is not related to any existing directors and is not debarred from holding office by any regulatory authority.
