Sinha will now head the marketing and branding divison at Amar Ujala as its assistant general manager, brand strategy and will report in to Sunil Mutreja, president - marketing, Amar Ujala. Sinha has also worked at HT Media strategy in a sales strategy, corporate planning and budgeting position between 2002 and 2005, and Managing Information System and prior to that at Koshika Telecom, a cellular operator which has since shut down.

Her role now transcends into a holistic marketing one, Sinha told Techcircle.in. "At DNA I was in a trade marketing role which was more of a B2B experience and at Amar Ujala, I am able to extend myself to a B2C medium," she added. She was unable to disclose the marketing strategy she plans to introduce at Amar Ujala, only saying that there are initiatives in the pipeline.
