United Spirits has announced the elevation of Mr. Amitabh Pande to Executive Committee as Chief Strategy Officer, effective 1st June 2026. This is an internal promotion with a change in designation, not an external appointment. Amitabh Pande brings 27 years of experience across consumer strategy, insights, marketing and business planning. He has been with Diageo India since 2021 leading consumer planning, strategy and digital transformation, with prior senior roles at IKEA and PepsiCo. The appointment follows recommendation from the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and is a full-time employment role reporting to MD & CEO Praveen Someshwar.
This is a routine internal promotion at the senior management level with no change in leadership structure or governance implications. The elevation of an experienced internal candidate to CSO role suggests continuity in strategic direction under the current management team.
