Sajith Sivanandan to Lead Tata Digital as New CEO

Tata Digital is preparing to welcome Sajith Sivanandan as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO), according to news reports. He is expected to take charge in the coming weeks. Sivanandan currently serves as the president of Jio Mobile Digital Services.

This leadership change follows the exit of the previous CEO, Naveen Tahilyani, earlier this year. Tata Digital is also undergoing a broader restructuring of its leadership and business strategy.

Who is Sajith Sivanandan?

Before joining Jio, Sajith Sivanandan worked at Google for several years. At Google, he led key projects such as Google Pay and the "Next Billion Users" program in India and the Asia-Pacific region. His experience in scaling internet businesses and leading large digital projects makes him a strong choice for the top role at Tata Digital. His new job will be to help Tata Digital grow faster and compete better in India’s crowded digital market.

What’s Next for Tata Digital?

Tata Digital is part of the larger Tata Group and is focusing on building strong e-commerce and digital services. The company competes with major players like Amazon, Flipkart (owned by Walmart), and Reliance.

With Sivanandan as CEO, Tata Digital hopes to sharpen its focus on areas like:

• E-commerce
• Quick commerce (fast delivery of everyday items)
• Other digital services

Leadership Changes at the Top
