Former Kellogg India's Chief Marketing Officer Sumit Mathur has joined payment platform Paytm. Mathur announced on LinkedIn: "Nothing’s more exciting for a marketeer than the opportunity to literally touch the lives of every Indian and every merchant. Super excited to kickstart my own journey with Paytm and make #harpaymentdigital."

Back in February, Mathur announced that he has moved on from Kellogg India after more than five and a half years with the company. He shared the news through a LinkedIn post. "This week’s my last serving bowls of Kellogg’s… a journey I cherish & feel proud of," he wrote.

Prior to that, Mathur was associated with Hindustan Unilever Limited for close to 15 years. He led the India Ice-cream business with overall P&L ownership and direct functional responsibility for Marketing, Sales, Shopper/Trade marketing and Cold Chain Logistics.
