(Reuters) -- Nestle India's Swiss parent is betting on former Amazon India head Manish Tiwary to steer the packaged-foods giant's unit as it grapples with stagnant sales and increased competition in the world's most populous country.

Nestle said on Monday it had recommended Tiwary as a successor to Suresh Narayanan, who is set to retire as managing director of Nestle India on July 30 after nearly a decade with the company.
