 "Volkswagen appoints Ashish Gupta as Brand Director for India operations")
Volkswagen Passenger Cars India on Thursday said it has appointed Ashish Gupta as Brand Director for the Indian operations with effect from November 1.
Gupta succeeds Steffen Knapp, who had been leading the Indian operations since August 2017.
"Completing his tenure as the Director for the Indian operations, effective November 1, 2020, Knapp will be succeeded by Ashish Gupta, currently head of Sales Operations at Volkswagen Passenger Cars India," the automaker said in a statement.
