Meta Platforms announced on Monday that Arun Srinivas will take on the role of managing director and head of Meta in India, starting July 1.
Currently, Srinivas oversees the company’s advertising business in India, as noted on his LinkedIn profile.
This leadership change occurs amid ongoing tensions between Meta and Indian regulators over allegations of anti-competitive behavior in the country.
In November, the Competition Commission of India (CCI) imposed a fine on Meta for antitrust violations and prohibited the company from allowing its messaging app WhatsApp, which is owned by Meta, to share user data with its other applications for advertising for a five-year period.
Meta expressed its disagreement with the CCI’s decision, cautioning that it could negatively impact its business operations. Earlier this year, the company achieved a significant win when an Indian tribunal temporarily lifted the five-year data sharing restriction.
