BPCL's former chairman Arun Kumar Singh is likely to be the new chairman of India's top oil and gas producer ONGC.
He retired from BPCL after attaining the superannuation age last month and was already selected to head the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB).
Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) is without a regular chairman and managing director since April 2021 and the senior most director on the board has been entrusted with the additional charge. Since then, the firm has seen a record three interim heads.
ONGC -- the first instance of a top PSU board-level position going to a person aged over 60.
