According to the media sources, the main reason for this is the decision of making Kalyan Krishnamurthy as the CEO of Flipkart after Bansal’s exit. People tracking the company had immediately started speculating on Narayanan continuation at Myntra as it was claimed that he did not share the best of relations with Krishnamurthy. Earlier Narayanan used to report to Group CEO Binny Bansal.

With this, Krishnamurthy has become the most powerful executive in the Flipkart group.

Narayanan had joined Myntra as CEO in 2015 after taking over from Myntra co-founder Mukesh Bansal. He joined Myntra at a time when several executives from consultancy companies were joining Flipkart group.

“The Flipkart group is committed to the success of Myntra and growing the business, now more than ever. The Myntra team has been doing innovative work to grow the company and create India’s leading online platforms for fashion and lifestyle. We want to empower the Myntra team to continue to operate independently to achieve even greater success.”
