Jaydeep Shah joins Sebamed as VP & marketing head
Mumbai: Jaydeep Shah has joined Sebamed India as vice president and chief marketing head. In this role, he will lead marketing for its consumer business across categories.
Shah is a seasoned brand and marketing professional who brings expertise on defining category and brand strategy, new product and communication development, category creation, re-defining brand architecture and portfolio play, building purposeful brands, digital and e-commerce.
Shah’s last stint was with Unilever, where he handled multiple roles in home and personal care categories. He was part of the global marketing team for Unilever’s fabric conditioners brand Comfort and served as lead strategy for the brand across South East Asia markets.

Prior to Unilever, Shah was associated with Ceat Tyres in various sales and marketing roles.
MUMBAI: In India’s fast-moving payments race, Visa has just swiped in a new leader. The company has named Suresh Sethi as its India country head, marking a key leadership shift as it sharpens its focus on digital payments growth in the market. Sethi steps into the role following his recent exit from Protean eGov Technologies, where he served as chief executive officer. He succeeds Sandeep Ghosh, who has moved on after more than four years at Visa to pursue an external opportunity.
The appointment comes at a time when Visa is doubling down on its expansion strategy across India and the wider region, deepening partnerships and accelerating adoption in an increasingly competitive digital payments ecosystem.
Sethi brings with him a broad, cross-market perspective shaped by decades of experience across corporate banking, retail financial services, mobile money and large-scale government technology initiatives. He began his career at Citigroup, where he spent 14 years working across India, Africa, South America and the United States, focusing on transaction banking services within the corporate bank.
His appointment signals a blend of institutional experience and market familiarity qualities that could prove critical as Visa navigates a landscape where fintech innovation, regulatory evolution and consumer adoption are all accelerating at once.
As digital payments in India continue to scale rapidly, the leadership change underscores a simple reality, in a market where every tap, scan and swipe counts, who leads the charge can matter just as much as the technology itself.
