EXCLUSIVE: Gaurav Gupta Joins TVS Motor as President, India 2W Operations

Gaurav Gupta, the Chief Growth Officer of JSW MG Motor India, has stepped down and has joined India’s third-largest two-wheeler maker, TVS Motor Company, as its president of India operations. Autocar Professional exclusively reported the development on Monday morning, the company announced the appointment to exchanges in the afternoon.

His last working day at JSW MG Motor India was January 31, and he joined the two-wheeler major this week.

Gupta will report to KN Radhakrishnan, the company's CEO. “Gaurav has rich experience and expertise that will add significant value to the company. The company has been on a steady growth trajectory, delivering results well ahead of the industry,” KN Radhakrishnan noted.

At JSW MG Motor, Gupta established the new structure for ‘MG Select’—the company’s premium car division—and has been the brand's chief growth officer since its launch in the Indian market in 2018.

Before joining MG Motor India, he was the Managing Director of Bridgestone Indonesia until September 2018. He has also held significant roles at General Motors in India, including head of sales and marketing, and has held various senior positions across General Motors' global operations.

He has worked in multiple countries, including India, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore, and China. 

An automotive industry veteran with over two and a half decades of experience, Gupta would look to bring his knowledge of sales and marketing in various parts of the industry, both in India and globally, into TVS Motor Company's domestic two-wheeler business. TVS Motor has the most diversified portfolio of two-wheelers in the country.

His understanding of electric vehicles may also be helpful, as TVS Motor Company intends to expand its presence in the Indian two-wheeler market.
