MUMBAI: A few months short of three years after he was appointed as the head of the human resources division at Sony Entertainment Television India, Nalin Garg has left the company.

When contacted, SET India CEO Kunal Dasgupta said that the functions of finance and HR had been merged and chief financial officer NP Singh would be heading it.

Singh and Garg joined Sony together in January 2000. While Singh came to Sony from Xerox India, Garg was with Prudential ICICI.

Dasgupta scotched industry speculation that Anuradha Sharma, who headed HR at Sony before leaving in December 1999 to join indya.com, would be returning.
