“Grateful to my colleagues and leaders, especially MD & CEO Amitabh Chaudhry, for all the support. As this beautiful chapter closes, I carry lifelong lessons and friendships. Thank you, Axis Bank,” she said.

In 2014, when Devendra Fadnavis became Maharashtra CM, Amruta refused to leave her job when she was Associate Vice-President of Axis Bank and was heading its premium branch in Nagpur.

“I won't leave my job. I have worked hard to get here...I believe every woman should try to be financially independent. I will always keep working because I too want to grow intellectually. It is a strong point of my identity,” Amruta had said.

Amruta, daughter of a doctor couple in Nagpur, had married Fadnavis in 2006.
