Udayan Mukherjee

The India Today Group has announced that it has retained the services of well-known business news face Udayan Mukherjee to bolster its coverage of business news. There will be a new on-air show hosted by Mukherjee.

Said Kalli Purie, Vice-Chairperson of the India Today Group: “Udayan brings with him a sharp insight into the future of business. As we grapple with the normal, new normal and abnormal we need his talent and a much-needed global perspective on helping us cope with the post-pandemic economy,” “His grasp of financial markets, innovation-driven businesses, fintechs, and micro- and macro-economic trends will cater to the growing appetite among the young generation of professionals, entrepreneurs, and startups for a clearer understanding of the new order of things. The India Today Group is delighted to have him on board as the host of our new Business Today show.”

Added Mukherjee: “I am delighted to be part of the India Today family. Having always admired the extensive and enormous reach of brands such as India Today, Business Today and TV Today, I am really looking forward to the opportunity of reaching out to their audiences and engaging with them. The whole world of business has been turned on its head. Business is not going to be the same again after the pandemic. And everybody — from business leaders to policy-makers — has to look at the world through a very different lens. It would be a great opportunity to engage with the business world once again but from a different perspective, through a different lens.”

The India Today Group, added a communique, would also be leveraging Mukherjee’s considerable experience to enhance its business offerings across print, television, and digital platforms.
