What happened
On 24 September 2026, Emami Realty Limited informed the stock exchange that Priyankar Dasgupta would resign as Vice President - Legal of the company with effect from December. The disclosure was made under Regulation 30 of the LODR rules as a change in management.
A later headline on a market news page says Emami Realty released him ahead of that schedule. That report is not yet matched by a company filing giving a new date, so the December 2026 date in the 24 September filing remains the confirmed position as of 3 November 2026.
Who he is and what the role covers
Dasgupta joined Emami Realty as Vice President - Legal with effect from 19 August 2025. At the time of that appointment, the company said he had more than 25 years of experience in land acquisition, due diligence, real estate regulatory compliance, litigation management, corporate legal advisory and risk mitigation.
His earlier senior roles include vice president positions at Siddha Group and Shrachi Group. He has also worked with DLF Universal Ltd., Indus Towers Ltd., Citigroup Global Services and the law firm Dasgupta and Chatterjee. He holds an LL.B. from the University of Kolkata and a postgraduate diploma in industrial relations and personnel management from Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan.
The legal function in a developer of this kind typically handles land title and approvals, RERA compliance and litigation. Those are the areas where a leadership change matters most to buyers and lenders.
Other leadership changes in September to October 2026
The VP Legal exit is one of several senior changes disclosed in the last two months:
- 9 October 2026: the company intimated receipt of a resignation letter from a Key Managerial Personnel.
- 13 October 2026: the resignation of National Head - Sales & Marketing Tarun Kanti Mukherjee was disclosed, effective 11 January 2027. He had been appointed to that role with effect from 6 November 2025.
- Whole-time director: a resignation letter from Rajesh Bansal is dated 21 September 2026 and was received by the company on 9 October 2026.
Taken together, these changes cover legal, sales and board-level roles within a single quarter.
