Saurabh Vatsa to lead Nissan India's commercial operations
Nissan Motor India has announced a leadership transition as it prepares for its next phase of operations in the country. Saurabh Vatsa , currently Managing Director, will take charge of commercial operations in India starting 1 August, as reported by Business Standard . Vatsa will report to Leon Dorssers, Senior Vice-President and Chief Commercial Officer for the AMIEO region (Africa, Middle East, India, Europe, and Oceania). The move follows as Frank Torres , who currently oversees Nissan's India business as Divisional Vice-President, prepares to step down. The leadership change comes as Nissan seeks to rebuild its presence in the Indian automotive market, where its activities have been limited in recent years. Amid speculation about its possible exit from India, Nissan recently reaffirmed its commitment to the country. The company also plans to launch new models between 2026 and 2027 as part of its renewed strategy. At present, Nissan's domestic product range includes the locally produced Magnite SUV and the imported X-Trail SUV. Despite the limited lineup, the company recorded exports of 91,184 units in calendar year 2024, reflecting strong overseas demand for its vehicles. The transition is seen as part of Nissan's efforts to reposition itself in the Indian market.
