However, Sinha has kept the multinational company's name confidential. As per his LinkedIn profile, it is a large multinational consulting company where is the Senior Business Advisor.

Sinha’s elevation to the top brand role at BCCL in July 2024 followed a successful stint as President - Response. In his expanded mandate, he oversaw brand strategy and positioning across flagship properties like The Times of India, The Economic Times, Times Internet Media Services (TIMS) and various regional publications. Around the same time, BCCL appointed Surinder Chawla, former MD and CEO of Paytm Payments Bank, as President and Head of Response.

A pivotal figure during his tenure, Sinha worked to deepen audience connection, boost brand equity and spearhead initiatives that unlocked new consumer segments and market opportunities. His leadership also helped sync content and brand strategies with business goals to accelerate revenue performance.

A professional with an eclectic background, ranging from nuclear engineering and banking to senior leadership roles at major advertising networks like Ogilvy, Publicis, BBH and McCann, Sinha’s move marks a significant shift in an already dynamic media and marketing landscape.
