According to sources, Reliance Life Deputy CEO Malay Ghosh has taken over Nandagopal’s functions.
Reliance Life will begin hunt for new CEO. It could be either from inside the company or from outside, sources added.
However, IRDA had asked all the insurers neither to terminate or appoint chief executives and directors without the prior approval of the regulator.
