MUMBAI: Havells India Ltd has announced the resignation of Rakesh Rajput as executive vice president for sales & marketing of the cable division effective 11 March 2025. Rajput, who has been a key pillar of the organisation for over two decades, is stepping down for personal reasons, bringing an emotional close to his illustrious 21-year tenure.

In his resignation letter, Rajput expressed gratitude to Anil Rai Gupta, chairman & MD of Havells, and the late Qimat Rai Gupta, acknowledging their trust and support in shaping his career. “This was a difficult decision, but the memories and experiences I have gathered at Havells will always stay with me,” he wrote, reflecting on his journey with the company.

Havells, one of India’s top electrical goods companies, has yet to announce a successor for the EVP role. The company’s leadership transition comes at a time when it continues to expand its market presence in the consumer and industrial segments.

Rajput’s departure marks a significant shift in Havells’ senior management, as the company navigates a dynamic business landscape. Industry insiders anticipate an announcement regarding the next phase of leadership soon. This resignation was formally communicated to the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) in compliance with SEBI’s listing obligations.
