Parthasarathi Mukherjee, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer of Lakshmi Vilas Bank (LVB) has put in his papers citing personal reasons.
Mukherjee's resignation comes at a time when the Reserve Bank of India is considering a proposal of merger of Indiabulls Housing Finance with LVB.
His resignation letter was placed before the Board in the Meeting held on Wednesday and the Board has accepted the same, the Bank said in a stock exchange notice.
The notice said Mukherjee will be relieved from his services at the closing hours on Saturday, 31st August 2019 as per his request.
