At present, we have fully equipped service stations in all the capital cities of the South Indian states, as well as in Pune. To meet the rapidly growing demand, we are actively expanding our service network across South India to ensure faster, more accessible support for our customers. As part of our commitment to promoting electric vehicles, we are also focusing on strengthening the ecosystem around EV batteries. We are working closely with the governments of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka to educate users about basic battery care and safe handling practices.

With conventional IC-engine vehicles, customers are used to visit any garage for service. However, EVs are fundamentally different—the battery is the heart of the vehicle and requires proper knowledge and handling. Our goal is to empower EV users with the right awareness so they can take better care of their batteries, enhance safety, and improve battery life. By building a strong service infrastructure and driving education initiatives, we aim to make EV adoption smoother, safer, and more reliable for everyone.

Please throw some light on your experience so far in battery business

I originally come from a software engineering background, and later I went on to launch and successfully run my own marketing company in Pune. Working closely with different industries gave me a broad perspective on emerging technologies and market needs.

Over the years, I began to notice the massive potential and rapid growth happening in India’s battery and energy sector—especially with the rise of electric vehicles, renewable energy, and the increasing demand for reliable backup power solutions.

My journey so far has been both challenging and rewarding. Building a brand in a highly technical industry required a deep understanding of battery chemistry, safety standards, supply chains, and customer expectations. But this learning curve is exactly what pushed us to innovate. Today, we are proud to develop products that focus on safety, quality, and long-term performance, with IP67-rated batteries and strict quality controls.

What motivates me most is the impact we can create—helping accelerate EV adoption, supporting clean energy solutions, and building safer, smarter battery systems for India’s future. This industry is evolving fast, and being part of this transition has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my career.
