Nabeel A Khan Steps Down As Renault India Communications Director
Nabeel A Khan has stepped down as director of PR, communications and public affairs at Renault India, closing a tenure of several years with the automaker.
- Role being vacated: director of PR and communications, and public affairs, Renault India
- Announced: by Khan himself, in a LinkedIn post

- Remit at Renault: brand voice, media relations and the public affairs narrative
What Nabeel A Khan Said About Leaving
He framed the tenure as a stretch of work rather than a job. "We didn't just put out statements or manage announcements; we genuinely pushed the envelope on how an automotive brand connects with people in India," he wrote, describing the years as a wild, rewarding adventure across a shifting auto industry.
He thanked Renault's leadership team and his internal colleagues, and then the outside constituency that a communications director actually lives with. "To my friends in the media, the auto critics, industry peers, and our agency partners: thank you. Thank you for the brilliant conversations, the tough questions, and the constant support over the years."
Why The Next Move Is Being Held Back
Because he has said so, and not much more. "I'm gearing up for a massive new adventure that I am beyond pumped about," he wrote. "I can't spill the beans just yet, but let's just say this next chapter is going to be incredibly special." He added that he would drop the news soon.
Before Renault Group, Khan worked across Motherson Group, The Economic Times, Network18 Media and IANS India, a route that runs through journalism before it arrives in corporate communications. That is a common shape for the automotive beat specifically, where the reporters, the critics and the comms directors have usually all sat in each other's chairs. More appointments.
