L’Oreal India, the maker of women’s beauty care products under Garnier and Maybelline, has roped in an Indian to head its operations – first time since it set up base here in 1991. Amit Jain, the current managing director of paint maker AkzoNobel’s north and west Europe region, will take charge as the managing director of L’Oreal India on 1 August, the firm said on Wednesday.

Jain (55), who is presently located in Amsterdam, will replace Jean-Christophe Letellier. Letellier will move to a larger role in the L’Oreal Groupe in Europe, after heading the India operations for five years.
