Giving information about this decision in a letter written to the shareholders, Goyal said that now the command of the company will be taken over by Albinder Dhindsa, who has been appointed as the new CEO.
Why resign from CEO?
Referring to the company’s growth, team’s contribution and future strategy, Goyal in his letter said that the leadership change is a necessary step for the next growth phase of Eternal. He expressed confidence that under the leadership of Albinder Dhindsa, the company will take both the Zomato and Blinkit brands to new heights.
He said that with this change, Eternal will be able to focus more seriously and will get a chance to work on new ideas. This development has come at a time when Eternal has been asked to compensate a total of Rs 27.56 crore along with interest and penalty of Rs 2 GST.
When was the company started?
It is noteworthy that in the year 2008, Deependra Goyal along with Pankaj Chadha started Zomato. Initially this platform was known as ‘Foodiebay’, which was later rebranded as Zomato. Recently, during a podcast, Goyal had revealed that earlier also he had made up his mind to leave the post of CEO and had also made an offer in this regard.
According to Goyal, he finds himself more comfortable and effective in the role of Chief Product Officer (CPO) than as a CEO of a large organization, where he can work directly on product development and innovation.
