Moglix has announced the appointment of Amit Kumar as its new Managing Director and Chief Business Officer, strengthening the company’s leadership team as it expands beyond industrial procurement into broader infrastructure and supply chain solutions for India’s manufacturing economy.
Based in Ahmedabad, Amit Kumar will join Moglix’s central leadership team with the mandate to scale the company’s emerging business segments and explore new growth opportunities across industrial commerce, supply chain intelligence and enterprise transformation.
The appointment comes at a time when Moglix is rapidly positioning itself as a larger operating infrastructure platform for India’s industrial ecosystem, moving well beyond its origins as a B2B procurement marketplace.
Amit Kumar brings over two decades of experience spanning business leadership, enterprise transformation and management consulting. Prior to joining Moglix, he served as Group CEO and Executive Director at Symphony Limited, where he led the company’s overall P&L growth, supply chain restructuring and digital transformation initiatives over nearly five years.
Before Symphony, Kumar held senior leadership and consulting roles at KPMG India, EY India and PwC India, working across sectors including automotive, consumer durables, steel, chemicals, FMCG and diversified industrials. His experience includes advising enterprises on procurement, operations improvement, manufacturing efficiency and large-scale business transformation.
He also previously co-founded a data analytics company focused on enterprise business modelling and advanced analytics. Kumar is an alumnus of Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad and Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur.
Commenting on the appointment, Rahul Garg said, “India’s industrial transformation is not a forecast anymore. It is happening, on the ground, in factories and supply chains and boardrooms, right now. Moglix is building the infrastructure this new industrial India runs on. That is not just a company ambition. It is, in a real sense, a contribution to how Bharat competes and grows over the next decade.”
He further added, “Amit has built and scaled businesses in exactly the conditions and sectors that define this moment. His joining reflects our conviction about what this company is becoming.”
Responding to the announcement, Amit Kumar said, “Bharat is at a point where the industrial foundations being laid today will shape the economy for the next decade and beyond. Being part of Moglix at this stage, contributing to building a disruptor of global scale from India, is an opportunity that does not come often. That is what brought me here.”
