Bakhshi was appointed as the head of ICICI Bank in October 2018, taking over from Chanda Kochhar in a period of uncertainty for the bank, as Kochhar stepped down in the face of inquiries over conflict of interest in some lending operations of the bank.
Prior to that, Bakhshi was a whole-time director and the chief operating officer of ICICI Bank. He had joined the ICICI Group in December 1986 and over his 37-year long tenure has been a part of several group companies.
Bakhshi headed ICICI Lombard General Insurance in 2007 and later joined ICICI Bank in 2009 as Deputy MD for portfolio quality, following which he was put in charge of ICICI Prudential Life Insurance in 2010.
