Nadella's visit to Hyderabad was kept under wraps both by the Microsoft India Development Centre, the IT behmoth's biggest R&D centre outside of its Redmond headquarters in the US, as well as the state government.
According to sources, Nadella will be visiting New Delhi on September 30 to take part in two events to be organised by Nasscom.
Nadella, the only third CEO to Microsoft in its history of over 40 years, is also expected to meet N Chandrababu Naidu, chief minister of Andhra Pradesh on Monday.
