Kandula played a key role in the acquisition of Patni by IGATE in 2011 and of IGATE by Capgemini in 2015. He has also spearheaded both integration processes.

''Since the acquisition of IGATE, India has become even more strategic to our global business roadmap.

Kandula has over 25 years of experience in business management strategy and practice. He joined IGATE in 2007, where he was executive vice president, member of the executive council and chief people officer, responsible for driving IGATE's Business Strategy, Human Resources, Quality Management and Marketing portfolios globally.

He has been associated with various industry and professional bodies such as NASSCOM, Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and Indo-American Chamber of Commerce for several years now.
