Times may be tough but the Varroc Group’s managing director has showed pluck and determination by acquiring Visteon’s global lighting business. And for this he wins Autocar Professional’s premier end-of-year accolade.
Mumbai, December 21, 2012: The Aurangabad-based Varroc Group’s managing director Tarang Jain has been named Man of the Year by Autocar Professional.
