Meta has appointed Arun Srinivas as the new Managing Director and Head for its India operations, effective July 1, 2025.
Srinivas, who has been serving as Director and Head of Ads Business for Meta India since 2022, will continue to report to Sandhya Devanathan, Meta's Vice President for India and Southeast Asia.
In his previous role, Srinivas led Meta's business strategy and revenue growth in India across platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. He played a key role in driving priorities such as artificial intelligence, Reels, and Messaging for business growth.
The appointment follows Meta's decision to expand Devanathan's responsibilities to include oversight of Southeast Asia. The news was announced by Dan Neary, Meta's Asia Pacific head.
Before joining Meta, Srinivas held leadership roles in major companies. He served as Chief Operating Officer and Global Chief Marketing Officer at Ola and was a Vice President at Unilever. He also worked at private equity firm WestBridge Capital, focusing on investments in the consumer sector.
Srinivas takes charge at a challenging time for Meta in India. The company is currently facing scrutiny from Indian authorities over anti-competitive practices. In November, the Competition Commission of India (CCI) fined Meta and barred WhatsApp from sharing user data with other Meta platforms for five years.
Srinivas's appointment signals Meta's continued focus on strengthening its leadership and navigating regulatory challenges in one of its key global markets.

Tigo Energy and BayWa r.e. Empower High-Wattage C&I Solar in Thailand

At annual ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week 2025, Tigo and BayWa r.e. collaborate on optimization, monitoring, and rapid shutdown solutions for C&I solar in Thailand. CAMPBELL, Calif., June 22, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tigo Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: TYGO) ("Tigo" or "Company"), a leading provider of intelligent solar and energy software solutions, today announced that the Company will share a trade show booth with BayWa r.e. at the annual ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week 2025, from July 2-4, at the QSNCC in Bangkok, Thailand. At the show, Tigo will focus on supporting Commercial and Industrial (C&I) solar installers and engineering, procurement, and construction specialists (EPCs) as enforcement of new rapid shutdown requirements begins, deploying high-wattage modules in high-irradiance regions, and ensuring Total Quality Solar (TQS) through Tigo service programs. For solar projects in hot, humid, and high-irradiance (>1000W/m2) regions like Southeast Asia, the Tigo TS4-X family of MLPE devices provides the latest in optimization, monitoring, and safety for solar installers deploying high-wattage modules, including supporting the increased backside gains of modern bifacial modules. The TS4-X product line gives installers more freedom to deploy the modules that deliver the power and performance for their customer deployments, reduce labor costs with a no-bolt design and no need for additional ground wiring, and contribute to improving Levelized Cost Of Energy (LCOE) in the large-scale solar sector. Tigo MLPE devices pair with an industry-leading list of third-party solar inverters to deliver design and installation flexibility for solar installers and EPCs. "Thailand's rooftop solar market is growing rapidly and so is the demand for safer, smarter systems," said Junrhey Castro, managing director at BayWa r.e. Solar Systems. "As a regional distributor, we're committed to supporting this growth with reliable solutions that protect both the performance and investment of our customers. Having Tigo in our product portfolio reflects our focus on quality and innovation for solar professionals across Thailand and Southeast Asia." In Thailand, Tigo will also invite installers to enroll directly in the Tigo Green Glove service program at the BayWa r.e. booth. The Green Glove service program is a premium support experience for installers of commercial and industrial (C&I) systems that enhances the installer experience and drives quality across the solar value chain with a process that includes a set of formalized support engagements for Tigo C&I installers before, during, and after the installation. "Strong collaboration between global companies like BayWa r.e. and Tigo is part of what makes the solar ecosystem work for more installers and EPCs around the world," said Jing Tian, chief growth and revenue officer at Tigo Energy. "As with many of the pro-solar nations in Asia, we believe that products like the TS4-X and programs like Green Glove make great strides in further driving LCOE down, and Total Quality Solar up, respectively. In regions with higher-than-normal irradiance values in particular, these dynamics benefit the entire industry, from equipment manufacturer to installer, and on to the operators and asset owners." ASEAN Sustainable Energy Week 2025 attendees are invited to visit BayWa r.e. and Tigo at booth F11 from July 2-4, at the QSNCC in Bangkok, Thailand.

Japan Flags Big Cut to Long-End Bond Issuance Before Risky Sale

Japan's larger-than-expected cut to super-long bond issuance has potential to ease some upward pressure on yields just before an auction this week that risks reigniting turmoil in the debt market. The move by the finance ministry may also prove fortuitous in light of the US attack on Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend. The escalating military action adds to the dangers for super-long yields via higher oil prices and inflation, even if the knee-jerk reaction Monday pulls bonds the other way as investors seek havens.
