New Delhi, March 6 -- Britannia Industries said on Thursday that its Chief Executive Officer Rajneet Singh Kohli has resigned, effective March 14.

Kohli joined as Britannia's CEO in September 2022 and previously held leadership roles at Domino's India, run by Jubilant Foodworks, Asian Paints and Coca-Cola Co.

The company beat third-quarter profit estimates in February as it benefitted from price hikes and a rebound in rural demand.

After the announcement, shares of Britannia edged lower by 0.58 per cent lower at Rs.4,692.85 apiece on the BSE ahead of market closing.
