Amit is the Chief People Officer at Taggd, where he plays a pivotal role in shaping a people-first culture that powers organizational excellence. An alumnus of XLRI, he brings with him deep expertise across HRWorkTech, SaaS-based platforms, and the IT and Telecom sectors, shaped by his prior stints at leading firms like Aricent Technologies and Tata Communications.
At Taggd, Amit’s leadership is anchored in a profound belief: that employee well-being isn’t just a checkbox of HR- it’s the foundation of a prosperous business. His extraordinary work ethic and empathetic approach have made him a driving force in building a workplace where collaboration, inclusion, and cultural sensitivity thrive.
Amit has consistently championed diversity, equity, and inclusion, particularly as an advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community. His contributions have earned him recognition as one of India’s Top 100 HR Professionals Under 40 (2020), along with accolades such as Young HR Leader, Young CHRO of the Year, Diversity Champion of the Year, and PeopleStrong’s Gold Plaque Award.
Amit envisions a future where recruitment becomes a seamless, scalable force for inclusive growth, unlocking real value for organizations and for India. He is passionately committed to building a platform as transformative as UPI- but for jobs. A system where every individual can access meaningful employment within 60 kilometers of their hometown. For Amit, this is more than a job; it’s about restoring dignity, expanding opportunity, and enabling economic justice.
Off the clock, Amit finds joy in expression through poetry, reflective blogs, and thoughtful conversations. He enjoys Sudoku for its strategic calm, badminton for its energy. He is a doting father who cherishes chess matches with his daughter Aarna. He lives by the mantra: the brain is like a parachute- it only works when it’s open, an openness that defines his leadership and life.
