Earlier this month, Ola Electric’s group chief human resources officer, Balachandar N, left the company after a four-year long stint

Ola Electric has been grappling with negative headlines over rising consumer complaints about its after-sales services and is also being probed by the CCPA

Days after it announced the exit of its chief human resources officer (CHRO), listed electric vehicle (EV) maker Ola Electric has seen the departure of two more top executives. 

In an exchange filing, Ola Electric said that its chief marketing officer (CMO) Anshul Khandelwal and chief technology and product officer (CTPO) Suvonil Chatterjee tendered their resignation with immediate effect. 

Both Khandelwal and Chatterjee cited personal reasons for their decisions in their respective resignation emails. 

“It has been an incredible journey. I am grateful for the opportunities to contribute to Ola’s inspiring vision. However, due to personal reasons I request to be relieved of my duties effective today,” Khandelwal said in his resignation mail. 

An alumnus of IIM Kozhikode, Khandelwal served as the CMO of Ola Electric for close to three years. He joined Ola Cabs (now Ola Consumer) as the head of marketing and revenue for its food delivery arm Foodpanda in 2018. After Ola shut Foodpanda in 2019, Khandelwal transitioned to the role of marketing head at Ola Foods. 

Khandelwal, who has more than 15 years of experience under his belt, previously worked with startups such as upGrad and BlueStone. 

Meanwhile, Chatterjee joined Ola Electric as its chief product officer in 2021 and was elevated to the position of chief technology officer (CTO) in November 2022, as per his LinkedIn profile. 

Prior to joining Ola Electric, Chatterjee was the CTO at Ola Consumer. He joined the ride-hailing major in 2017 as the head of design. 

The development comes days after Ola Electric CHRO Balachandar N quit the company after a stint of almost four year.

The EV maker is currently trying to douse fires on multiple fronts. It has been grappling with negative headlines over rising consumer complaints about its after-sales services and is also being probed by the Central Consumer Protection Authority. 

Amid these, the company opened 3,200 new stores earlier this week to take the count of its showrooms and service centres to 4,000.

Shares of Ola Electric closed Friday’s (December 27) trading session 3.68% lower at INR 90.09 on the BSE.
