Gurugram: Delhivery Limited has announced the departures of Deepak Kapoor, Chairman and Non-Executive Independent Director, and Saugata Gupta, Non-Executive Independent Director, from the company’s Board, effective April 1, 2026.
The changes are part of Delhivery’s previously announced board rejuvenation exercise, aimed at aligning governance with the company’s next phase of growth. In 2025, Delhivery appointed Namita Thapar, Whole-time Director at Emcure Pharmaceuticals Limited; Sameer Mehta, Co-Founder and Executive Director of boAt Lifestyle; Yashish Dahiya, Chairman, Executive Director and CEO of PB Fintech; and Dr. Padmini Srinivasan, Faculty member at IIM Bangalore, as Non-Executive Independent Directors.
Deepak Kapoor joined Delhivery’s Board in 2017, while Saugata Gupta joined in 2021. Both directors played pivotal roles in guiding the company through its initial public offering in 2022 and in shaping its growth trajectory as a public entity.
Commenting on the transition, Sahil Barua, MD & CEO, Delhivery, said, “Deepak served as Chairman of our Board for over 8 years and was instrumental in helping us set up high quality governance, board processes, appropriate financial systems and controls and internal audit processes. Saugata played a large role as Chairperson of our NRC, helping us benchmark and institutionalise HR processes and metrics and hone our recruitment and retention strategy for high quality talent.”
He added, “More importantly, Deepak and Saugata have been instrumental in our process of recognising the need for and enabling the reconstitution of the Board of Directors in line with our ambitious next phase of growth. On behalf of the entire Delhivery team, we are deeply thankful to both for their counsel and support.”
