NEW DELHI: IT services major Infosys on Tuesday said that president Ravi Kumar S has decided to resign from his post with immediate effect.
In a regulatory filing, Infosys said the board of directors placed on record their deep sense of appreciation for the services rendered by Kumar for his contributions to the company.
The move comes just 2 days ahead of the company's second quarter result announcement.
In his role as president, Ravi Kumar S led the Infosys Global Services Organisation across all industry segments.
He led the services lines and specialised digital sales across consulting, technology, infrastructure, engineering and process verticals.
Starting his career as a nuclear scientist at the Bhabha Atomic Research Center, he joined Infosys in 2002 and was appointed as its president in 2016.
In 2017, he was named as the deputy COO and was widely tipped to be the company's COO, but Infosys later did away with the post of the COO after the retirement of incumbent UB Pravin Rao.
According to the 2021-22 annual report of Infosys, Kumar was the third highest-paid senior executive of the company after CEO Salil Parekh and former COO UB Pravin Rao.
