New Delhi: Uber India and South Asia President Prabhjeet Singh has stepped down from his role after an 11-year association with the ride-hailing company to pursue another leadership opportunity, the company said on Friday.
Confirming the development, an Uber spokesperson told IANS that the company remains committed to expanding its presence in India, which continues to be one of its most important markets globally.
“India is one of Uber’s most important markets globally, an important driver of innovation and long-term growth. The strength of our business today reflects the incredible team and foundation built over the years,” the spokesperson stated.
“We thank Prabhjeet for his leadership and lasting contributions in his decade-long journey with Uber – we remain deeply committed to our next phase of growth in India,” the spokesperson added.
Singh joined Uber more than a decade ago and played a significant role in shaping the company’s operations across India and South Asia.
His tenure coincided with a period of rapid growth for the ride-hailing industry, marked by evolving consumer preferences, technological advancements and intense competition.
During his leadership, Uber expanded its footprint across several Indian cities and diversified its services beyond conventional cab-hailing operations. The company increased its focus on technology-driven mobility solutions, strengthened driver partnerships and introduced initiatives aimed at enhancing customer experience.
Singh oversaw Uber’s operations during a transformative phase for the mobility sector, as the company adapted to changing market dynamics and sought to deepen its presence in India. The country has consistently been identified by Uber as a key growth market within its global business strategy.
His departure comes at a time when Uber is continuing to invest in expanding its offerings and strengthening its position in the Indian mobility ecosystem.
The company has not yet announced a successor to Singh or shared details regarding the leadership transition.
