P&G India announced its new Managing Director & CEO Mr. Madhusudan Gopalan who will take over from April 1, 2018. Mr. Madhusudan Gopalan has more than 18 years of experience working for the company across business units and diverse geographies like India, US and ASEAN countries. Madhusudan is currently leading the P&G business in Indonesia where he has led strong sales growth, share turn around, strong value creation and cash productivity.

Madhusudan will take over from Mr. Al Rajwani, who is set to retire from the company after 37 years of service after the end of the financial year. Until his retirement, Al will help in onboarding Madhusudan on the India business and enable a smooth transition. During Al's tenure, over the last three years, the P&G business in India underwent a portfolio transformation that saw the company go from losing money to delivering triple digit-profit in a couple of years.
