In a letter to Varun Berry, the Vice Chairman and Managing Director of Britannia, Kohli said that “after much thought and deliberation, I have reached a tough and a difficult decision, to resign from the services of the company with effect from 14th March 2025, to pursue an external opportunity.”

He requested Berry to waive his notice period and relieve him from that date.

“It has been a privilege to work alongside you and as part of Britannia Leadership for over 2.5 years,” he continued. “I am grateful for the opportunity and humbled to lead the largest and most loved iconic Britannia brand, work with a talented team, and contribute to the company’s success. We have made real progress, and I am proud of what we have achieved together.”
