Fintech unicorn Pine Labs has elevated CEO Amrish Rau to the additional roles of Chairman and Managing Director for a five-year term. This strategic move signals the company’s intensified focus on an India-first growth strategy and strengthens its leadership ahead of a highly anticipated $1 billion IPO slated for late 2025.
Since taking over as CEO in 2020, Rau has been pivotal in driving Pine Labs’ transformation—expanding into Buy Now Pay Later solutions and digital invoicing, while also overseeing the reversal of the company’s overseas domicile. Under his leadership, Pine Labs secured final approval from the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) to shift its headquarters from Singapore to India, aligning with peers like PhonePe and Zepto.
With Rau now at the helm across all top leadership roles, Pine Labs is poised to accelerate governance, investor confidence, and operational agility as it prepares for public listing.
