Ramakrishnan headed TCS' North America division before being elevated as CFO. He also had stints at Tata Elxsi Ltd. and Tata Motors Ltd.

“We are deeply saddened about the demise of our former CFO, V Ramakrishnan in Bangalore today,” TCS said in a statement. "He will be missed by colleagues, friends, and family.”
