Miss Conduct S04 E13: Chanda Kochhar Part 1 & Part 2

/

Chanda Kochhar former Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of ICICI Bank, and the first woman to head an Indian financial institution. Between 1984 to 2017, Chanda was seen as a leading figure at the bank, being on the board of directors (and sometimes chairman) of most of the bank’s subsidiaries.

Chanda was revered and idolised across the country…

…till 2018, when allegations emerged that she had engaged in bank fraud.

Chanda suddenly found herself entangled in investigations by just about every enforcement agency in India, and accused of using her position to issue massive loans to her family and friends.

Her husband and associates, who were caught in this mess as well, are alleged to have enriched themselves through Chanda.

Our 2-part season finale is a deep-dive into Chanda Kochhar's life, her time at ICICI Bank, the whistleblower complaints against her, the subsequent arrests and bail orders, and of course, the numerous, ever-changing chargesheets that have been filed so far
