Samsung India Mobile Chief Raju Antony Pullan Steps Down; Aditya Babbar to Reportedly Lead MX Operations

Samsung Electronics India’s mobile business is undergoing a major leadership transition after Raju Antony Pullan stepped down from his role as Senior Vice President and Head of the MX (Mobile Experience) Division. He had been leading the division for over four years and spent nearly 18 years with the company in various leadership roles across sales, operations, and product strategy.

In a post shared on LinkedIn, Pullan confirmed his resignation and reflected on his long career with Samsung India. He noted that his journey included key milestones such as expanding the reach of Galaxy smartphones across Indian households and building stronger sales and operational frameworks for the brand in the country.

During his tenure, Pullan played an important role in strengthening Samsung’s position in the highly competitive Indian smartphone market. His leadership covered multiple responsibilities, including heading sales for the MX division and overseeing supply operations, where he focused on improving efficiency and scaling distribution networks across regions.

Following his departure, reports suggest that Aditya Babbar, who currently serves as Vice President and Head of Product Marketing and E-Commerce within the Mobile Experience division, is expected to take over leadership responsibilities. The change comes at a time when Samsung continues to hold a strong position in India’s smartphone market, consistently ranking as one of the top brands alongside competitors like Apple Inc. and Xiaomi.
