Astrotalk, an astrology platform, has appointed Deepak Khetan as its first-ever Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as it prepares to launch an Initial Public Offering (IPO) within the next two years.
Khetan brings an extensive background in finance and leadership to the newly created role. He has previously held senior positions at GLS Group India, GlobalBees, YES Bank, ICICI Bank, Edelweiss Financial Services Limited, and Gulf Islamic Investment.
In his broader role, Deepak will be leading financial planning, risk management, compliance, and investor relations. He will also design a financial structure to carry Astrotalk through the IPO process, and in the long run, guide strategic investments, international expansion, and sustained growth.
Puneet Gupta, Founder & CEO, Astrotalk, said, “As we are scaling and launching in new geographies, our finances have also started becoming more complex. We wanted a strong leader with good pedigree and experience who could handle our finances with airtight compliance. While the IPO is a major milestone, it’s only one chapter in our story. Deepak’s guidance will help us chart the right course, not just to a successful public listing but to a future where our growth remains steady and strong. With him leading our finances, we’re confident and ready for whatever comes next.”
Deepak Khetan said, “I’m excited to join Astrotalk at such an important time. Preparing for an IPO is like preparing for a marathon, it requires precision, strategy, and the right team. I look forward to building the financial discipline and systems that will support the company’s ambitions for years to come.”
