Sumit Sawhney will move to a new position in the group

Arindam Majumder New Delhi
French auto major Renault on Tuesday announced a leadership change in its Indian operations with Venkatram Mamillapalle set to take charge from current Managing Director and Head, Sumit Sawhney. The change will be effective from March 1.
 
Under Sawhney, who will be moving to a new position within the group, Renault scripted a success story with the Kwid brand shaking up the affordable small car market of India. Owing to its SUV-ish design and localisation drive, 98 per cent of its components are made in India that brought down the cost of Kwid’s spare parts by at least 17%.
