Panasonic India’s long-serving Chairman, Manish Sharma, has resigned after nearly two decades with the Japanese electronics giant, marking the end of a transformative leadership phase. During his tenure, Sharma played a pivotal role in deepening Panasonic’s manufacturing footprint in India, driving localization, and strengthening its alignment with the government’s Make in India initiative. Following his exit, Tadashi Chiba, currently the Managing Director of Panasonic Life Solutions India, will assume the chairman’s role.
