    Meesho said on Wednesday that its chief human resources officer (CHRO) Ashish Singh has stepped down. This is the second senior-level exit at the value commerce company.

    In an internal note to employees, CEO Vidit Aatrey said Singh will remain through the transition period and help find his successor.

    Singh was in the role for five years and has previously held positions at Medlife, Myntra, and Adobe.


    “In over five years, Ashish built our People function from the ground up through hyper-growth, through the IPO, and through every difficult moment in between. The talent density, the culture, the systems we take for granted today, a lot of that is his work,” Aatrey wrote to employees.

    This comes months after Megha Agarwal, general manager-business, quit the ecommerce marketplace. Milan Partani, the company's general manager-user growth & content commerce, took over the role.

    Marking its push into kirana and the small retailer network, Meesho announced earlier this month that it will acquire the business-to-business (B2B) grocery marketplace Kirana Club for Rs 202 crore in cash. Aatrey said the acquisition extends the company’s internet commerce play to retailers, a segment that remains central to India’s grocery trade.

    Meesho saw a 47% on-year jump in operating revenues, at Rs 3,531 crore, in the quarter ended March 2026. Its net loss narrowed sharply to Rs 166 crore from Rs 1,391 crore a year earlier.
