BARC appoints Nakul Chopra as CEO

Broadcast Audience Research Council on Friday announced the appointment of Nakul Chopra as its chief executive.

Chopra will replace Sunil Lulla, who is leaving the TV audience body to pursue entrepreneurial ambitions, the council said in a statement.

He has served as the chairman of BARC in FY19, after being appointed to the board in 2016, the statement said.

I am very happy to welcome Nakul as the natural and unanimous choice of the Board for the continuing journey of adding robustness to the BARC currency and strengthening the governance of the world’s largest television audience measurement body, BARC’s current chairman Punit Goenka said.
