Bengaluru: Dinanath Kholkar, Senior Vice President and Global Head of Partner Ecosystems and Alliances at Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), has resigned from the company after a remarkable tenure of 34 years to explore opportunities beyond TCS. Kholkar, who initiated the data warehousing and data mining group at TCS in 1996, has held various leadership roles, including CEO and MD of TCS eServe and Head of the BFSI BPO. He also served as the Global Head of Analytics and Insights from 2017 to 2022.
Rajeev Rai has been appointed as the new Global Head of Partner Ecosystem and Alliances, succeeding Kholkar. An email sent to TCS did not receive a response by the time of press.
In a LinkedIn post, Kholkar expressed gratitude, stating, “Over the years, I was fortunate to have worked with excellent leaders and experts in the industry, at TCS, our partners, our customers, and the extended ecosystem of TCS. Every team that I worked in was special, and together we have some great memories to cherish.”
