T.S. BHATTACHARYA... MD, SBI
A SBI man to the core, he’s perfected the art of number crunching...
State Bank of India – India’s largest bank has some larger than life personalities at its helm. One such name is of T.S. Bhattacharya, MD & Group Executive (Corporate Banking). Associated with the bank since 1969, Bhattacharya has held various positions within SBI, among them MD of State Bank of Indore (one of the most profitable subsidiaries of SBI). Bhattacharya temporarily got a chance to head SBI after Chairman A.K.Purwar’s tenure expired, but O.P. Bhatt, the then MD of the bank, managed to race past him to the top post. Awarded the mantle of ‘personality of the decade’ by the KG Foundation, Bhattacharya has played an instrumental role in charting SBI’s success in India and overseas. According to him ‘risk-taking’ is an essential mantra to achieve success and that to ‘think & act differently’ and ‘write your own rule book’ are the two key traits that have helped him to make a difference. “I have tried to do things differently,” he said, referring to his tenure in Jakarta, where he once headed the representative office of SBI. And the banking behemoth concurs.
