Tech veteran succeeds Deepak Kapoor effective 1 April 2026.
MUMBAI: Neelam Dhawan just took the driver’s seat at Delhivery because when logistics needs sharper direction, even the board calls in a Microsoft-level navigator.

She succeeds Deepak Kapoor, who steps down after more than eight years, as disclosed in the company’s regulatory filing on 31 January 2026.
