Transition Timeline: From Acceptance to Final Departure
The company has acknowledged and accepted Nair’s decision, with the formal acceptance of his resignation dated November 3. Even though he will soon be departing the telecom giant, Nair will continue to fulfill his duties during the notice period, which extends until February 15, 2024.
Reason Behind the Move: A Journey Westward
As per circulating reports, Nair’s decision to resign aligns with his plans to relocate to the United States, hinting at potential new ventures or opportunities awaiting him overseas.
A Pattern of Departures: Following Another Top Executive’s Exit
Nair’s resignation echoes another major departure from Airtel earlier this year. Ajay Chitkaran, the long-serving CEO who had been with the company for an impressive 23 years, chose to step down in June. Such consecutive high-profile exits underscore a period of transition for the telecom behemoth.
Looking Ahead: Airtel Digital’s Path Forward
While the company faces the challenge of filling the shoes of influential leaders like Nair and Chitkaran, Airtel has always shown resilience and adaptability. With its history of innovation and market leadership in the telecom sector, the company is expected to navigate these changes while continuing to maintain its growth trajectory and market dominance in the Asia-Pacific region.
