\"\"NEW DELHI: BlackBerry<\/a>, the onetime smartphone leader, may be transforming itself in the global markets, but its operations in India have come to a near-halt with its staff<\/a> count reduced to less than a fourth over the past year.

The Canadian handset maker had about 70 people in India in 2014 and is now down to about 15, with most of its senior management having quit, according to people aware of the developments. BlackBerry’s head of India operations, Sunil Lalvani, put in his papers in June and went on to take charge of

Sources said head of product management Advait Vaidya, an old hand at the company, has also resigned, while director of sales and distribution for India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh Sameer Bhatia moved in June to head brand retail at
Seagate Technology<\/a>.

\nManoj Khilani, head of enterprise marketing — a critical area for the company following its shift from retail to the corporate market — left BlackBerry in January to head marketing and communications for Kronos, his LinkedIn profile showed.
