Who I sell to

Buyers of premium vehicles in India and the Gulf: people who expect the showroom to know the product better than they do, and to respect their time. Today that includes buyers making their first move to a battery-electric vehicle.

How I sell

Consultatively, and through the dealer network that carries the brand to the customer. An MBA grounds the commercial side: reading a market, planning a pipeline, and leading a team to a number.

Who this portfolio is for

Heads of sales, country and regional managers, talent leads and recruiters at premium car brands and importers in India and the GCC. It is built to show how I work, not just where I have worked.

Proof of how a premium sale is made, in India and the Gulf, and how electric changes the conversation.

III · BEV expertise

Leading battery-electric sales at Mahindra, Chennai.

As Assistant Sales Manager for BEV Sales, I work where the electric transition meets the customer. These are the conversations that matter most.

  • The first-time EV buyer

    Range, charging at home, running costs, resale: the questions are practical, and a good answer closes more than a good pitch.

  • Product fluency in the showroom

    Selling a battery-electric vehicle means explaining it plainly, and training a team to do the same.

  • Ownership beyond the sale

    Charging access and service confidence shape the decision as much as the car does.

IV · Two markets

A view across India and the Gulf.

Today

India

Leading BEV sales from Chennai, where electric is moving from curiosity to consideration and the dealer network decides how fast.

6+ years

The Gulf

Six or more years selling in Gulf markets, with the customer expectations that come with premium vehicles in the region.

Experience in both markets means I understand how a brand's approach has to adapt as it moves between them.

V · Career

  1. 15+ years

    A career in sales and business
