Bhargava has so far been heading the company's Strategy, Global Business and Emerging Mobility Business Unit (EMBU).

Ashutosh Varma, presently head of West Zone for Sales and After Sales, will be the new Head of National Sales.
Hero MotoCorp said it will continue to evaluate internal talent within the organisation to identify and groom them for potential leadership positions.
"These announcements are the first step in this direction and the organisation will continue to build on this platform in future," it added.
