"We have a unique opportunity here to provide distinctive and empowering services that can improve the lives of our customers and drive their economic development," Patil said.

"We consider India our home market where we want to deepen our presence, engagement and relevance. I look forward to further strengthening our innovative organisation and collaborating with the ecosystem to take Truecaller to greater heights," he added.

Based in Bengaluru, Patil will be responsible for spearheading business strategies to expand the company's footprint and accelerate revenue growth globally. He will be overseeing the teams based in Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru.

He holds an MBA from the London Business School and a B.Tech. from the Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai.
