Puneet Chandok, the head of Amazon Web Services (AWS) in India and South Asia, has resigned amid rumors of joining a rival firm, TechCrunch reported.
Before AWS, Chandok spent over 11 years as a partner at McKinsey & Company, spearheading its digital and tech efforts across India and Asia.
Chandok’s departure comes shortly after AWS announced its commitment to investing over US$12 billion in India by 2030.
Vaishali Kasturae has been appointed as the interim leader of the commercial business unit, AWS confirmed to TechCrunch.
India is viewed as a crucial cloud market by Google, Microsoft, and AWS.
Microsoft, in particular, already operates three cloud regions in India, putting it ahead of both Google and AWS.
