Co-Founder of online travel-tech aggregator EaseMyTrip Nishant Pitti on Friday said he sold a "small portion" of the promoter shares held by him for "personal reasons", days after the company announced his resignation as CEO. In a social media post, Nishant, who was replaced by his brother and Co-Founder Rikant Pittie, after EaseMyTrip announced his appointment as the new CEO on January 1, reassured that the travel-tech platform is on a "strong growth path" and his move to sell a portion of the promoter shares does not reflect any lack of confidence in its future.

"I recently sold a small portion of my promoter shares for personal reasons. I want to assure you this does not reflect any lack of confidence in EaseMyTrip's bright future. With a talented team and Rikant's visionary leadership, EaseMyTrip is on a strong growth path. To honor your trust, I have thoughtfully limited my share sale and confirm there will be no further sales from my side.



"Thank you for your unwavering support. Together, we will achieve even greater success. The best is yet to come!," Nishant said in a post on X.
