"In Q4, we bolstered our service and maintenance network with a strategic partnership with Ki Mobility Solutions and expanded the reach of our service brands: Castrol Auto Service, Castrol Bike Points, and Castrol Express Oil Change”, Sangwan continued.
Sharing a future outlook, Sangwan further noted , “We will continue to drive long-term growth for Castrol through our future-ready strategy, which focuses on an enhanced play in service & maintenance, and a foray into new segments including automotive aftercare and electric mobility".
