FreeCharge CEO Govind Rajan quits

Govind Rajan, the CEO of Snapdeal-owned FreeCharge, has put in his papers after less than 2 years of joining the digital payments firm.

When contacted, Snapdealconfirmed the development.

“Govind has brought incredible energy and focus in growing FreeCharge. The pace of progress will continue with the strong team that he has built. I am sure he will bring the same level of passion and resolve whatever he chooses next,” Snapdeal co-founder and CEO Kunal Bahl said.

Rajan had joined FreeCharge in August 2015 and was the Chief Operating Officer at the company. The former Bharti Airtel Executive was elevated to the post of CEO in May last year.

Snapdeal had acquired FreeCharge in April 2015.
