Porter Ropes In Ex-Amazon Executive Gaurav Jain As CFO

Logistics startup Porter has named former Amazon executive Gaurav Jain as its new CFO, following the departure of Anurag Jalori six months ago. Jain brings over 11 years of experience at Amazon, most recently as director and head of finance for India operations and supply chain.

In addition to Jain, Porter has promoted Shubham Gupta to CTO and Mohit Rathi to CMO. Gupta had been the VP of engineering at Porter since 2015, overseeing the technology team through expansion and modernization. Rathi, who has worked at Porter for over 11 years, will lead the company's growth and marketing efforts.

Founder and CEO Uttam Digga praised Gupta and Rathi, acknowledging their vital contributions to the company. He also welcomed Jain as the CFO, noting his expertise in scaling businesses as Porter prepares for its next phase of growth.

Porter was founded in 2014 by Digga and Pranav Goel, offering B2C and B2B logistics services such as enterprise goods movement, packers and movers, and intercity courier services. The company serves over 30 million customers, including 20 million MSMEs and 3 million driver-partners, across 35 cities in India.

Since its inception, Porter has raised over $330 million in funding from investors such as Kedaara Capital, Wellington Management, Peak XV Partners, Elev8 Ventures, Tiger Global, and Lightrock. The company's financial performance has been strong, with net profit quadrupling from ₹55.3 crore in FY25 to ₹229 crore in FY26, and revenue growing 54% to ₹6,650 crore.
