Eternal Limited (Zomato) Announces Resignation of Chief Operating Officer

Eternal Limited, formerly known as Zomato, has informed the public about the resignation of Rinshul Chandra, who holds the position of Chief Operating Officer in the Food Ordering and Delivery division. Chandra, a significant figure in the firm’s senior management team, submitted his resignation on April 5 and will officially leave the role on April 7.

As detailed in the company’s announcement to stock exchanges, Chandra is departing to explore new opportunities and interests that align with his developing personal and professional aspirations.

Chandra joined Zomato (currently Eternal) back in 2018 as the Assistant Vice President of Product. He gradually advanced within the organisation, taking on roles such as Vice President, Head of Business, and ultimately, the Chief Operating Officer for the food delivery sector.

At this time, Eternal Limited has not disclosed who will succeed Chandra.

This news follows recent mass layoffs at Zomato, where reports indicate that approximately 600 customer support associates were dismissed within a year of their hiring.

In the past year, Zomato has experienced several notable departures. Hemal Jain, who was the Global Head of Finance and CFO of Hyperpure, has also resigned. Furthermore, Akriti Chopra, the company’s co-founder and Chief People Officer, has exited the firm. In October of the previous year, Gunjan Soni stepped down from her role as an Independent Director.

Recently, Zomato underwent a rebranding to Eternal, which now encompasses four principal businesses: Zomato, Blinkit, District, and Hyperpure.
