The outgoing CHRO, Kandi, submitted his resignation to the Board. In his letter, Kandi stated he was stepping down due to a proposed transition to another company within the Tata Group. He served as the CHRO and SMP at Tata Motors Limited. The Board accepted his resignation and moved forward with the appointment process.
The Board approved the appointment of DP Nambiar as the new Chief Human Resources Officer. DP Nambiar brings extensive experience in human resources management across India, Europe, and North America. He will assume his new responsibilities on May 29, 2026.
Before joining Tata Motors, Nambiar served as Vice-President and Head of HR – Geographies and Corporate Functions at Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). At TCS, he led HR strategy for global business units and geographies. His responsibilities included overseeing recruitment, reskilling initiatives, organisational restructuring, labour code compliance, and employee engagement programmes.
DP Nambiar also acted as a spokesperson for TCS and chaired the NASSCOM Mumbai Chapter. His experience in HR leadership spans several regions and business functions, which the company highlighted in its disclosure.
The leadership change comes as Tata Motors continues to operate in competitive markets across India and internationally. The new CHRO is expected to support the company’s HR strategy and employee engagement efforts. The Board expressed confidence in the new appointment and thanked the outgoing CHRO for his service.
The company disclosed these developments in an official statement updated on May 14, 2026, at 12:57 PM IST.
