"Singh's appointment will be formalised at the next Board of Directors meeting scheduled to be held on July 28, 2008," Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) said in a statement.
Earlier in May, TKM's longstanding Deputy Managing Director KK Swamy left the company and joined luxury carmaker Volkswagen.
"Singh brings with him over 25 years of experience in a range of sales, marketing, customer support and general management functions across the automotive, tractor and construction equipment industries," TKM said.
Sandeep Singh had already worked with TKM in the initial years of its start up apart from having worked with DCM Toyota earlier, it added.
TKM is a joint venture between Japan's Toyota Motor Corporation and the Kirloskar Group. Recently, it has announced a Rs 1,400 crore investment plan to set up the company's second manufacturing facility in the country to introduce a 'strategic small car' by 2010.
