Previously the company’s Internal Communications Lead for India, Papnai takes on a broader marketing and communications remit.
Renaissa Ghosh Papnai has taken on the role of India Marketing and Communications Head at Hitachi Digital, according to an October 29 report by exchange4media.
She previously served as Internal Communications Lead – India and has been associated with the organisation for more than seven years, the publication reported. Her expanded responsibilities cover the company’s marketing and communications function in India.
Experience across communications and brand marketing
Papnai’s professional background spans public relations, corporate communications, brand positioning and employee engagement.
According to Indian Television, she joined the organisation in August 2019 as Assistant Manager, Marketing Communications. She subsequently became Deputy Manager, Marketing and Communications, before moving into the India internal communications lead position.
Before joining, she worked at Fiserv and NXP Semiconductors, alongside earlier roles in publishing and public relations. Those assignments included media relations, publicity campaigns, internal communications and corporate events.
Appointment reported in October
Although the appointment received coverage on October 29, career timelines published by Indian Television and Brand Communion list April 2026 as the start of her current role.
The reporting therefore should not be read as confirmation that she assumed the position in October. The available reports do not specify her reporting line, team size or detailed business targets.
