Tata Sons Forms Interim Committee to Manage Air India Amid CEO Appointment Delay
Tata Sons chairman N Chandrasekaran has formed an interim management committee to oversee Air India amid delays in appointing a new CEO. The delay follows opposition, including from Tata Trusts chairman Noel Tata, to the proposed appointment of Nipun Aggarwal, the airline's current chief commercial officer. The committee includes Chandrasekaran, former Air India CMD Pradeep Singh Kharola, and other senior executives. Kharola aims to enhance operational efficiency, while Chandrasekaran focuses on improving quality control and profitability. The search for a permanent CEO continues as Campbell Wilson prepares to leave in September.
