Home First Finance Company India Limited (HFFCIL) has announced a significant change in its management structure with the appointment of Shreyans Bachhawat as the new Company Secretary, Compliance Officer, and Head - Legal. This decision was finalized during the Board Meeting held on November 4, 2025, where the board approved Bachhawat's additional responsibilities in overseeing the company's legal function. While the initial announcement mistakenly listed October 1, 2025, as the effective date of his appointment, the company has since clarified that the actual effective date is November 4, 2025.

Bachhawat brings a wealth of experience to his new role, having accumulated over 17 years in corporate secretarial, legal, and compliance matters. He is a qualified Company Secretary and holds a Bachelor’s degree in Law, positioning him as a strong asset for Home First Finance. His prior experience encompasses various aspects of corporate governance, regulatory compliance, and legal documentation, which will enhance the company’s operational integrity and compliance framework.

The company has communicated this update to both the BSE and NSE, ensuring that all regulatory obligations are met as per the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The board expressed regret for any confusion caused by the earlier miscommunication regarding the appointment date. As HFFCIL continues to navigate the dynamic landscape of the finance sector, Bachhawat's leadership in the legal domain will be critical for the company's strategic direction and compliance adherence.
