What this move signals
Sameer Gadve stepped down as Chief Information Security Officer of IIFL Finance with effect from January 22, 2026, pursuant to an internal movement within the company, according to the board meeting disclosure the same day.
The seat was filled immediately from inside: the board appointed Kailash Gaonkar as CISO effective January 23. Indian listed lenders must disclose changes to senior management personnel, which is why the handover is on the record to the day.
