In a surprising turn of events, Realme Global Vice President for Business and Corporate Strategy, Madhav Sheth, is rumored to be bidding farewell to the company. Speculations suggest that Sheth will be joining HONOR’s India branch with the mission to revitalize the brand’s presence in the country’s competitive smartphone market.

Realme, an emerging player in the smartphone industry, has been making waves since its inception in 2018. Sheth’s pivotal role in establishing the brand’s presence in both the Indian and European markets cannot be overstated. However, recent developments have raised eyebrows, as Sheth has been noticeably absent from Realme’s product launches in India, including the highly anticipated Realme 11 Pro 5G series.
Meanwhile, HONOR, previously a subsidiary of Huawei, underwent a significant change in 2020 when it was sold to Shenzhen Zhixin New Information Technology Co Ltd, a China-based company. Despite this transition, HONOR made it clear that it remained committed to the Indian market and was eager to expand its offerings beyond smartphones into segments such as laptops and wearables.
Sheth’s decision to join HONOR India carries immense significance. With his wealth of experience and expertise, he is expected to lead HONOR’s revival in India and pose a formidable challenge to established players like Apple and Samsung. As Chinese smartphone brands face mounting challenges, Sheth’s appointment could be a game-changer for HONOR’s prospects in the Indian market.
While Realme and HONOR have yet to release official statements regarding this development, the industry eagerly awaits confirmation. The absence of any announcements from Sheth himself only adds to the intrigue surrounding his move. One can’t help but wonder about the strategies and innovations he will bring to the table, which could potentially reshape the competitive landscape of India’s smartphone market.
