Sources said Tahilyani was handpicked by Tata Sons chairman N Chandrasekaran after having demonstrated good execution in the insurance, banking and asset management business of the group.
Pal, who launched the much-hyped superapp Tata Neu, will continue in Tata Digital to “ensure continuity and contribute with his wealth of experience” to the firm, according to a company statement. The company did not say what exactly Pal’s role would be.

“Naveen brings in a strong understanding of consumer domain and a very successful track record of leadership. I wish Naveen success in his new role,” Chandrasekaran said in a statement.
