TikTok leadership believes in long term potential of India market: Nikhil Gandhi

TikTok’s leadership strongly believes in the long-term potential of the India market and sees ‘immense growth opportunities’ for the short video platform, its country chief, Nikhil Gandhi, has written in an email to employees.

The government banned the Chinese, ByteDance-owned app in June, citing ‘national security’ concerns following a prolonged border standoff with China.

“We remain committed to the positive impact our platforms can have on the society. Our employees have been at the heart of our business and we place utmost importance on our employees’ personal and professional well-being,” Gandhi said in the email, according to people familiar with the matter.
