After recent changes in its apex management, Wipro, the country's third largest information technology services company has announced some more changes to its senior leadership.
After nominating company veteran Bhanumurthy B M as president and chief operating officer, the company has decided to replace him in the earlier role with Hiral Chandrana, vice- president and head for the consumer products business unit. He is being made VP & head of business application services (BAS), which Bhanumurthy was heading as president. BAS accounts for close to half of Wipro’s overall revenue
Also, Wipro said, Kiran Desai, head of service delivery at global infrastructure services (GIS), would now head that business. In the recent rejig after Abidali Neemuchawala was made the new chief executive, the company had reshuffled the role of G K Prasanna, who headed GIS, as president and chief executive. Prasanna, a company veteran of 33 years, will now head a newly-created business unit — marketing, innovations and technology — as its president.
“Both these appointments are effective February 1,” it was stated. Chandrana and Desai would both report to Bhanumurthy, who would take charge as president & head of operations from next month.
