Neha Malhotra joins Zee Music Company as SVP- marketing
After entrepreneurial stint, she returns to music biz with sharper focus
MUMBAI: Neha Malhotra has joined Zee Music Company as senior vice president – marketing, marking a return to the music industry after a year-long entrepreneurial stint.
Malhotra most recently founded and led OneNative Content Studio, where she worked as a partner, focusing on strategic marketing, business strategy and content-led brand solutions. Her move back into a large music label signals a shift from building independently to scaling within an established ecosystem.
Prior to this, she spent over four years at Saregama India Ltd., where she held multiple leadership roles including assistant general manager, chief marketing manager and senior marketing manager. Her tenure saw her work across artist marketing, campaign strategy and brand positioning in a rapidly evolving digital music landscape.
Her earlier career spans stints at IN10 Media and Gipsy Hospitality & Destinations Pvt. Ltd., where she led integrated marketing campaigns, public relations and brand launches across entertainment and hospitality verticals. She also held roles at Tata Sky Ltd and UTV, building a foundation in content acquisition and media strategy.
Sharing the update, Malhotra reflected on her journey over the past year, describing it as a phase shaped by “pressure, perspective and learning what leadership really looks like when things aren’t certain.” She added that the experience of building from scratch helped sharpen her instincts and approach to decision-making.
At Zee Music Company, she is expected to lead marketing strategy and drive artist-led storytelling, at a time when music labels are increasingly competing for audience attention across digital platforms.
Her appointment underlines a broader trend of seasoned marketing leaders blending entrepreneurial experience with corporate scale. As Malhotra steps into her new role, the focus will be on turning that hybrid perspective into campaigns that not only cut through the noise but also stay true to the music.

Flipkart elevates Ravi Rajani to director after six-year compliance run
Anti-corruption specialist steps up to strengthen governance framework
MUMBAI: Flipkart has promoted Ravi Rajani to director, marking a key milestone in his six-year tenure with the company as it continues to sharpen its governance and compliance focus.
Rajani, who joined Flipkart in 2020, has steadily risen through the ranks within the organisation’s anti-corruption compliance function. He most recently served as associate director, anti-corruption compliance, a role he held from September 2022 to April 2026. Prior to that, he was senior manager in the same vertical, playing a key role in strengthening internal controls and regulatory adherence.
In his new role as director, Rajani is expected to further bolster Flipkart’s governance framework, drawing on his experience in managing compliance risks and navigating evolving regulatory landscapes.
Before joining Flipkart, Rajani worked as a consultant at AZB & Partners, where he gained exposure to corporate law and regulatory advisory. He began his career at EY, progressing from article assistant to consultant over nearly four years, building a strong foundation in audit and compliance practices.
Academically, he is a chartered accountant from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and also holds a law degree from V. T. Choksi Sarvajanik Law College, equipping him with a dual lens on finance and legal frameworks.
Rajani’s elevation reflects Flipkart’s continued emphasis on strengthening internal governance as the ecommerce sector faces increasing regulatory scrutiny. As compliance moves from a backend function to a strategic priority, leadership roles such as his are becoming central to how companies build trust and scale responsibly.
