Soma Mondal takes charge as SAIL chairperson; succeeds Anil Kumar Chaudhary

State-owned Steel Authority of India said Soma Mondal has taken charge as its chairperson. Before this, she was the director (commercial) of SAIL, the country’s largest steel-making company said.

A 1984-graduate in electrical engineering from the National Institute of Technology-Rourkela, Mondal started her career as a graduate engineer trainee at NALCO and rose to become a director (commercial) at NALCO.

She joined SAIL in 2017 as the director (commercial), it said.

She succeeds Anil Kumar Chaudhary, who superannuated on Thursday after serving the company for 36 years in various roles including junior manager and director (finance).

Mondal said, “Our immediate focus is to improve the top-line (revenue) and bottom-line (profit) of the company. We are charting out all strategies to improve value for all our stakeholders and make it structurally stronger.”
