Software major Infosys will see a top-level change as its Chief Operating Officer and company veteran UB Pravin Rao will be retiring. Infosys CEO Salil Parekh said at the earnings press conference, “This will be the last full quarter before Pravin retires. We will announce a new future structure in future weeks.”
Pravin Rao is the Chief Operating Officer of Infosys and a whole-time Director of the Board. He was inducted on January 10, 2014, as a member of the Board.

Since joining Infosys in 1986, he has held a number of senior leadership roles including Interim Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Head of Infrastructure Management Services, Delivery Head for Europe, and Head of Retail, Consumer Packaged Goods, Logistics and Life Sciences.
He played a crucial role in ensuring stability when the company went through a CEO change when Vishal Sikka left and Salil Parekh was appointed.
