Jaspal Singh Bindra: When we talk of some super Bankers of India, the name of S. Inderjit Singh, the founder and chairman of Punjab & Sind Bank comes to our mind on top of others. His service to the Bank
was marvelous, but to the Sikh community, it was unsurpassed. He gave employment and training to so
many Sikhs that at one point of time six nationalised banks had their chairman from among these people.
Another Sikh known as super banker is S. Jaspal Singh Bindra, who headed standard charted bank in India
when Grindley bank was merged with it. After merger, he became the CEO of the merged bank and worked
hard for it to make it the third most profitable bank in India after State Bank of India and Canara Bank. his
strenuous efforts also made the merged bank as the second most profitable multinational in the country
after m/s Hindustan lever limited. There after Mr. Bindra was elevated to higher positions and after serving
the banking sector for more than 30 years, he decided to enter the financial services industry by becoming
executive chairman of Centrum group. He has already taken a significant majority stake and started his
expansion plans. This super Banker an alumni of St Xavier’s College, Kolkata, is among a handful of Indianborn executives who have reached the highest level of success in the global financial industry. Thus, he is a
source of inspiration for all those who inspire to reach such coveted heights.
