MUMBAI: Snapdeal marketing  senior vice president Srinivas Murthy has moved on from his role in the company to embark on an entrepreneurial journey.

"The entrepreneurial drive has rubbed off onto me. I'm now moving on to become an entrepreneur myself," said Murthy.

Not divulging the details of his new venture, Murthy added that he will announce it in the next few months.

"Srini has decided to begin an exciting new journey as an entrepreneur, and while he will surely be missed, I am delighted to see that he is carrying forward the Snapdeal spirit of entrepreneurship,” said Snapdeal CEO and co-founder Kunal Bahl.

This is the second major exit at Snapdeal in recent times after the company's head of strategy Ranjan Kant quit to join Jabong as CMO.
