On being appointed IBF President, Shankar said, “I am privileged to be trusted by the members of IBF to lead the industry body at a critical juncture when the industry needs to leap to the next level by working collaboratively with the Government and other stake holders”.

“Punit Goenka would have been my personal preference for the President's role since I have already done a stint as IBF president.  However, in view of Punit's existing commitment to BARC, he proposed that I hold the reigns at IBF,” added Shankar.
