In a major leadership overhaul, Reliance Retail Ventures Ltd. (RRVL), the retail arm of Reliance Industries Ltd. (RIL), has appointed former Flipkart executive Jeyandran Venugopal as its new President & CEO. The appointment comes as the company gears up for a likely public listing in 2027–28.
Venugopal brings over 25 years of experience spanning retail, e-commerce and technology. At Flipkart, he served as Chief Product & Technology Officer, overseeing product strategy, engineering, data science, infrastructure, monetisation, customer growth and retention. Prior to that, he held technology leadership roles at Myntra, Jabong, Yahoo and Amazon Web Services.
In his new role at RRVL, Venugopal will work closely with Isha Ambani and the senior leadership team under RIL chairman Mukesh Ambani and Manoj Modi. His mandate includes strengthening the retail portfolio, accelerating omnichannel expansion, and driving technical and operational excellence across the value chain.
The leadership change underscores Reliance’s strategy to infuse deep technology know-how into its retail business, as it seeks to cement its position as India’s largest and most diversified retailer ahead of its planned IPO
