Fortis Healthcare said Monday its board has approved appointment of Girish Gupta as interim Chief Financial Officer with immediate effect.

He replaces Gagandeep Singh Bedi, who resigned from the post citing personal reasons.

"He is a global finance executive with 38 years of post-qualification experience across organisations and prior to joining Fortis, was working as an advisor on operations of insolvency and bankruptcy assignment for a public listed company and special assignments for NCLT," it added.

The board has also approved the appointment of Sumit Goel as interim company secretary with immediate effect, Fortis Healthcare said.
