Infosys President and company veteran of 22 years, Mohit Joshi decided to move on in a massive executive reshuffle for the Indian IT industry. The IT leader will be joining Tech Mahindra as its new Managing Director (MD) and Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
It has been reported that Infosys made a last-minute attempt to keep Joshi on board but were unable to come to a consensus as he was eyeing a bigger role. Tech Mahindra appears to have made hay and found an apt replacement for retiring MD and CEO CP Gurnani. However, Joshi’s departure leaves a big void to be filled at Infosys.
