He holds the post of Chairperson of India’s pension regulator, Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority(PFRDA).[1][2] He was Chief Economic Advisor, Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) and was an independent Director on a few companies’ Boards.[3] Prior to that, Dr. Mohanty was Whole Time Member, PFRDA.[4]
He served as Executive Director of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

He has presided over a few committees in RBI for suggesting various policy changes by the central bank.[6] In one such committee, he suggested that only the repo rate should be the signalling rate and that the monetary system should almost always operate in a deficit. One other big suggestion he made is that the government's surplus cash deposited with the RBI should be auctioned so that there is no lead and lag in liquidity.[7]
