India's and world's most talked-about CEOs in May
Sanjay Chandra of Unitech was the most-discussed CEO in May, albeit for all the wrong reasons.


Sanjay Chandra of Unitech was the most-discussed CEO in May, albeit for all the wrong reasons. Developments in the 2G spectrum scam probe, including the Central Bureau of Investigation special court refusing bail to Chandra and four other telecom honchos, their arrest and incarceration in Tihar, and their appeal in the Delhi High Court against the special court's order, were extensively reported in the media. The media focus also stayed on Chandra, because the Unitech stock fell more than five per cent after the special court's order, and was followed by newspaper reports of a rift between Unitech and its joint venture partner Telenor.
ICICI Bank chief K.V. Kamath's appointment as Infosys Chairman received wide coverage in the media, too, as part of leadership change at the firm.
