This would include his resignation from Snapdeal and Ola boards in India. This is standard procedure and is unrelated to any current operations at Snapdeal, Ola or other boards. SBGI Managing Directors, Kabir Misra and David Thevenon, will be the primary leads on Snapdeal and Ola respectively, going forward.
