Myntra Appoints Kannan Ganesan as New CFO Effective December 1, 2025

Myntra, the Bengaluru-based fashion and lifestyle e-commerce platform, has announced the appointment of Kannan Ganesan as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective December 1, 2025, according to a report by ETCFO. 

The company confirmed ETCFO about the development following reports of the leadership change within the Flipkart Group. Ganesan will succeed Abhishek Gupta, who is moving on after nearly four years as Myntra’s CFO and a total of seven years with the Flipkart Group.

Kannan Ganesan’s Professional Background

Currently serving as Vice President – Business Finance at Flipkart, Ganesan has played a key role in overseeing financial strategy and operations across multiple business verticals. He joined Flipkart in 2020 from Unilever, where he held several leadership roles in finance. At Flipkart, he led finance functions for divisions such as eKart, Mobiles, Large and Electronics, Travel, and later, all business units under Category and Marketing & Monetisation.

Ganesan’s appointment reflects a continuation of Flipkart Group’s internal leadership development strategy, promoting senior executives into group-level roles. His experience in managing large-scale financial operations and business transformation initiatives is expected to bring strong fiscal discipline and strategic focus to Myntra’s growth plans.

Abhishek Gupta’s Departure

Abhishek Gupta, who has served as Myntra’s CFO since 2021, is reportedly exploring external opportunities after his long tenure at the Flipkart Group. Under his financial leadership, Myntra strengthened its profitability metrics and expanded its market presence within India’s competitive fashion e-commerce segment.
