Reliance ADAG is already undergoing a major change at the helm, just a month after crossing five million subscribers in short span of time. Arun Kapoor, has quit from his position as CEO and President after being appointed in July 2008.
The reason for Kapoor's decision is not known. It comes as a surprise, considering that Kapoor had announced long-term plans for the company.
At present, Mahesh Prasad is the acting president of Reliance Big TV. Prasad, who had been with Big TV since its inception, was the President, applications, solutions and content group, Reliance Communications.
Prior to Big TV, Kapoor was the CEO with its rival Dish TV since 2006. Then he joined Reliance as COO after which he was made the CEO, and in four months he resigned to join Dish TV again. As competition is rapidly expanding in the DTH market, how will this move affect Big TV?
