Bengaluru: Suparna Mitra, Chief Executive Officer of the Watches & Wearables Division at Titan Company Limited, has tendered her resignation, the company announced in a regulatory filing with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) on Monday. Mitra will step down from her role effective August 12, 2025, citing personal reasons.
A veteran at Titan, Mitra has been with the company for several years and served as CEO of the Watches & Wearables division for the past five years. During her tenure, she played a key role in driving growth and innovation, expanding the company’s footprint in both traditional timepieces and the fast-evolving smart wearables category.
“This is to inform that Ms. Suparna Mitra, CEO of the Watches & Wearables Division of the Company, has tendered her resignation from the services of the Company with effect from 12th August 2025,” the company said in its BSE filing.
In her resignation letter to Titan’s Managing Director C.K. Venkataraman, Mitra wrote: “I would like to tender my resignation as the CEO of the Watches & Wearables Division of Titan Company Limited by 12th August 2025, due to personal reasons. I am eternally grateful to the Company for giving me the opportunity to serve, contribute and grow in the past many years. The last 5 years as CEO of the Watches & Wearables Division have been particularly rewarding and gratifying, and I would like to thank you for the guidance during this period.”
Mitra’s departure comes amid broader leadership transitions at Titan. On May 8, 2025, the Tata Group firm announced that its board has approved a succession plan for Managing Director C.K. Venkataraman, who will retire on December 31, 2025, upon reaching the Tata Group’s superannuation age limit. He will be succeeded by Ajoy Chawla effective from January 2026.
In April 2024, Mitra was appointed as an Independent Director on the board of Swiggy, marking her entry into India’s startup ecosystem while continuing her leadership role at Titan. Her experience in brand strategy, consumer insights, and business transformation was seen as a valuable addition to the food delivery giant’s board.
