New Delhi, Delhi, India, June 2026 — Global enterprise fintech innovator and leading turnkey payment orchestration powerhouse Aurus Inc. has officially announced the appointment of Rishabh Jain as Senior Vice President & Head of Business, Strategy & Growth – India & Emerging Markets, effective immediately.
The strategic leadership move comes at a critical juncture as Aurus Inc. sharpens its focus on scaling its regional merchant orchestration network and aggressively expanding its multi-market cross-border payments footprint. In his new regional mandate, Rishabh Jain will hold comprehensive end-to-end ownership of revenue, profitability, and market expansion across India and high-growth emerging economies. He will be responsible for architecting the company’s structural national go-to-market (GTM) strategy, driving high-value enterprise sales, accelerating corporate acquisitions, and forging critical bank-driven partner alliances.
Rishabh Jain brings a stellar 13-year track record spanning corporate strategy, B2B enterprise sales, international expansion, and digital payment frameworks. An alumnus of the Indian Institute of Management Lucknow (IIM Lucknow), he possesses authoritative domain expertise in handling complex digital commerce architectures, merchant acquiring rails, and multi-layered bank partner ecosystems. Prior to joining Aurus Inc., he held pivotal leadership and business roles across some of India’s most prominent banking, fintech, and corporate organizations. At HDFC Bank and Pine Labs, he spearheaded critical initiatives within enterprise digital payments and institutional merchant acquiring ecosystems. At Paytm and Cashify, he directed fast-evolving commercial initiatives, managing high-velocity scale and commercial structuring, while at Maxis and The Tata Group, he formulated scalable corporate strategies, international market access systems, and critical client engagements at the CXO layer.
Throughout his career, Rishabh Jain has built a reputation for high-velocity commercial execution, scaling business verticals from structural inception to profitability, and cultivating resilient C-suite relationships with prominent financial institutions and Fortune 500-level retail conglomerates. His appointment reflects Aurus Inc.’s commitment to strengthening its leadership capabilities as global merchants increasingly move toward unified payment orchestration architectures that simplify multi-country payment ecosystems and improve transaction efficiency.
Commenting on the broader market opportunity, a fintech industry analyst noted, “Unified omni-channel payment platforms and turnkey orchestration have moved from optional innovations to foundational enterprise infrastructure. Large-scale merchants and global retailers are actively moving away from fragmented, multi-vendor payment setups toward integrated architectures that process immense multi-market transaction volumes seamlessly. Rishabh’s deep operational execution and background in structuring high-value commercial deals make him uniquely positioned to anchor this high-velocity growth phase for Aurus.”
