Panattoni Announces Senior Leadership Appointment to Drive Next Phase of Pan-India Expansion and Industrial Infrastructure Innovation

New Delhi, June 08, 2026: Appointment of Abhilash Pasupuleti as Chief Operating Officer will strengthen Panattoni’s leadership team in line with global developers’ aggressive multi-city growth blueprint and growth across key Indian markets Panattoni, one of the world’s largest industrial real estate developers, has announced the strategic appointment of Abhilash Pasupuleti as its Chief Operating Officer (COO), India.

This appointment comes at a defining moment for the company as it aggressively scales its pan-India footprint and continues to expand its presence across key industrial and logistics markets in the country. As COO, Abhilash will oversee operations across Panattoni’s development portfolio and work closely with the leadership team to drive the company’s strategic growth plans, operational excellence and deliver customer-focused, specialised, tech-driven, and ESG-compliant infrastructure.

Panattoni has rapidly established its presence in India with landmark developments, including its foundational Delhi-NCR project at Panattoni Park NH71 and the recently announced mega-logistics park in Kochi and a breakthrough, specialised aerospace-grade manufacturing hub in Hyderabad.

Abhilash brings over 16 years of extensive experience in the real estate industry, encompassing investments, asset management, capital markets and fundraising. Prior to joining Panattoni, he served as Executive Director and Head of Asset Management at IndoSpace, where he oversaw the performance of development funds and a Core investment vehicle with an AUM of approximately USD 3 billion.

Over the course of his career, he has built extensive experience across investment strategy, portfolio management, investor engagement and operational leadership. He has held positions with leading global financial and advisory institutions, including JP Morgan Chase, Deloitte Financial Advisory Services, and Citi Markets.

Abhilash holds an MBA in Finance alongside a B.Tech in Electronics and Communications Engineering. In his new role, he will take immediate operational charge of Panattoni’s expanding geographic portfolio, ensuring the standardised, world-class execution is replicated flawlessly across new regional entries. With occupiers moving away from standard storage to advanced engineering spaces – such as Panattoni’s new climate-controlled, high-load aerospace facility in Hyderabad – Abhilash’s expertise will be instrumental in delivering complex, high-spec industrial assets.

Norbert Sumisławski, Interim MD India & Managing Director International Project Management, Panattoni, added: “Welcoming Abhilash to the leadership team marks a monumental milestone during this period of phenomenal growth for Panattoni India. Abhilash’s extensive experience across industrial real estate, investments, and asset management, combined with his strong leadership capabilities, will be instrumental as we continue to expand our India platform and deliver best-in-class developments to our customers and to ensure that Panattoni continues to set global benchmarks for industrial infrastructure in India.”

Robert Dobrzycki, Panattoni CEO and Co-Owner Europe, UK, Middle East & India, stated: “India represents one of the most dynamic growth markets for global logistics and industrial real estate today. The appointment of a seasoned operational leader like Abhilash underscores Panattoni’s long-term commitment to the region, ensuring the company has the localised leadership and execution capabilities required to deliver world-class, institutional-grade assets that seamlessly align with global tenant expectations and India’s rapid industrial transformation.”

Abhilash Pasupuleti, the newly appointed Chief Operating Officer of Panattoni India, expressed that: “Panattoni has an exceptional global legacy and reputation for developing high quality industrial and logistics real estate solutions. I’m excited to join the team at such an important stage of its growth in India as the the company aims to expand its presence in India. The country continues to offer significant opportunities across logistics, manufacturing, and industrial infrastructure, and I look forward to working with the leadership team, customers and our partners to support Panattoni’s growth ambitions and delivering best-in-class solutions to our customers and investor
