As of December 2023, which of the following global companies was not led by a CEO of Indian origin?

The correct choice is: “RedBull GmbH”

Red Bull GmbH, the Austrian energy-drink company, is not led by a person of Indian origin. After co-founder Dietrich Mateschitz died in October 2022, its leadership passed to a management board of Austrian executives (Oliver Mintzlaff, Franz Watzlawick and Alexander Kirchmayr).

The other three were led by CEOs of Indian origin in December 2023: “Starbucks” by Laxman Narasimhan (CEO from March 2023 to August 2024), “Microsoft” by Satya Nadella (CEO since 2014), and “Chanel” by Leena Nair (CEO since January 2022).
