“The next 12-13 months will be crucial for the company as we add three products — the Gravite whose deliveries will begin next month; the C-segment five-seater SUV Tekton that will be launched in just over a couple of months with deliveries slated from July and the launch of a C-segment seven-seater SUV in the first quarter of 2027. This will expand our presence from the Rs 6-12 lakh segment at present to over Rs 20 lakh. To increase our reach in the market, we are planning to increase our presence from 150 touchpoints at present to 250 touchpoints by next March,” said Gupta.
