As per an internal memo sent by the company on April 22nd, Campbell Wilson who served as the chief executive officer of Air India, will be stepping down as the chairman of Air India Express, the airline's low-cost subsidiary. He will be replaced by its chief commercial officer Nipun Aggarwal.

Tata Group, as per an ET report, has supported the position of Wilson as chief executive of Air India, followed by Nipun Aggarwal and Sanjay Sharma as chief commercial and transformation officer and chief financial officer, respectively.

The report added that Vistara CEO Vinod Kanan could return to his parent company, Singapore Airlines (SIA). Whereas, Deepak Rajawat, the chief commercial officer at Vistara, might be a part of the merged entity.
