Former Ford Managing Director, Arvind Mathew will take charge from the 1st of May.

Maini's stake in the company has consistently dropped ever since Mahindra took over, although he is a stakeholder.

Maini had a stake of over 5.5 percent when Mahindra took over the company but at the end of 2014 financial year, his stakes in the company stood at 3.57 percent.

After running the company for more than 20 years, Chetan Maini has not decided what his next step is. He might take up a position in Mahindra itself, although he is yet to make up his mind.
