Ixigo’s Ashish Pratap Singh joins Rehlat
NEW DELHI: Online travel booking platform Rehlat.com has named Ashish Pratap Singh as its chief marketing officer. He will be leading brand, growth, partnership and alliances at the company that was founded in 2012.
Singh was last serving as head of digital marketing at ixigo.com, where he spent nearly four years.
At ixigo, Singh was leading brand, content, creative, acquisition, and attribution initiatives. He was responsible for new user acquisition, growing organic traffic, repeat visits and managing analytics.
This was Singh’s second stint at ixigo. He was previously associated with the organisation between 2012 and 2014.
He has over 10 years of industry experience and has worked at multiple brands such as Zopper, Karyaah, and Stellar Information Systems.
MUMBAI: In India’s fast-moving payments race, Visa has just swiped in a new leader. The company has named Suresh Sethi as its India country head, marking a key leadership shift as it sharpens its focus on digital payments growth in the market. Sethi steps into the role following his recent exit from Protean eGov Technologies, where he served as chief executive officer. He succeeds Sandeep Ghosh, who has moved on after more than four years at Visa to pursue an external opportunity.
The appointment comes at a time when Visa is doubling down on its expansion strategy across India and the wider region, deepening partnerships and accelerating adoption in an increasingly competitive digital payments ecosystem.
Sethi brings with him a broad, cross-market perspective shaped by decades of experience across corporate banking, retail financial services, mobile money and large-scale government technology initiatives. He began his career at Citigroup, where he spent 14 years working across India, Africa, South America and the United States, focusing on transaction banking services within the corporate bank.
His appointment signals a blend of institutional experience and market familiarity qualities that could prove critical as Visa navigates a landscape where fintech innovation, regulatory evolution and consumer adoption are all accelerating at once.
As digital payments in India continue to scale rapidly, the leadership change underscores a simple reality, in a market where every tap, scan and swipe counts, who leads the charge can matter just as much as the technology itself.
