MUMBAI: Ravindra Pisharody has been appointed president of Tata Motors (commercial vehicles), following Prakash Telang's promotion as company managing director.
The commercial vehicles division is the largest revenue earner for Tata Motors, contributing almost 60%. The 52-year-old Ravi, as he is popularly known, is an electronics engineer and joined the Tata Motors commercial vehicle unit as V-P (sales and marketing) two years ago from British Petroleum, Singapore.
Recently, Ravi Kant, on turning 65, made way for Telang. Kant is now vice-chairman of Tata Motors. Besides the new appointments Tata Motors's management team has now been expanded to 15 people from the earlier 13 till last year. While Rajiv Dube remains president of the passenger car division, C Ramakrishnan heads finance. For the new management, it is a challenge to manoeuvre Tata Motors, whose net profit halved by 50% in 2008-09, from a bumpy drive to smoother roads.
