SportVot promotes Sajid Khan to Chief Revenue Officer

MUMBAI – A promotion with extra innings. SportVot has handed senior executive Sajid Khan a bigger role, promoting him to chief revenue officer for video India while he continues to serve as chief executive of SportVot Play.

The move signals a stronger growth push from the sports streaming firm, which is looking to sharpen its competitive edge in India’s increasingly crowded digital sports market.

Khan, who has spent the past two years building partnerships and strengthening SportVot’s commercial engine, will now lead the company’s broader revenue strategy for its video business. His expanded responsibilities include accelerating monetisation, deepening strategic alliances, and helping the company scale its footprint across India’s rapidly evolving sports content and production ecosystem.

The appointment also reflects confidence in an executive who has already become central to the company’s growth story. Rather than looking outside, SportVot has chosen to back a familiar hand with a larger playbook. That makes strategic sense. India’s sports streaming market is becoming more competitive by the month, with platforms battling for audiences, advertisers and exclusive content. For emerging players like SportVot, execution matters as much as ambition.

By giving Khan a dual mandate, the company appears to be betting that continuity at the top can help unlock faster expansion without losing momentum.
