Tata Group's joint venture airline AirAsia India Pvt Ltd announced the appointment of ex-IndiGo official Ankur Garg as its chief commercial officer (coo).

As CCO, Garg will be managing day-to-day commercial operations of AirAsia India, including network and revenue management, marketing & sales and cargo.

Garg takes over the role of CCO from Sanjay Kumar, who stepped down earlier this month citing personal reasons. Kumar's resignation came exactly after a year he joined the airline.
