After spearheading innumerable innovative projects to enhance consumer experience for three years, Flipkart’s vice president of products Saran Chatterjee quits.

After his stints at companies like OmegaMobile and Fujitsu Network Communications and Yahoo, he had joined Flipkart in 2012 and was leading the e-commerce major's product management and design for its consumer experience and platform team. He was also involved in building out Flipkart’s new advertising business.

This resignation comes at a time when Flipkart is investing heavily to recruit talent from global firms like Google and Yahoo to build a technology capability that can rival Amazon in the country.

In March, it had roped in two senior Google execs Punit Soni and Peeyush Ranjan for $5-6 million annual packages and former McKinsey director Saikiran Krishnamurthy for a similar pay package, as per company sources familiar with their compensation. Former Yahoo India R&D head Hari Vasudev had also joined Flipkart as Senior Vice President- Engineering, IT & Analytics for its Supply Chain vertical in April this year.
