Yatin S. Gupte, Wardwizard: Creating exceptional business values and achievements

Years of working in the industry, your contribution reflects versatility and volubility. What has influenced your decision making process at various stages?

I have always been passionate about starting something of my own since very young age but due to some or the other external factors the same can’t be established. That was my biggest driving force as to work so hard and to be able to push myself to limits. I gather as much as information to aid my decision. You have to gather every piece of information. Sometimes you don’t have time to gather information, so I weigh time more than anything else. I look at the likely outcomes for the development of my organization. I look at the alternatives and choose among them.

An accomplishment that you consider to be the most significant in your career?

Working in this industry since almost 4 years and have various accolades from various entities for various reasons, but for me I consider seeing my Company being listed in Bombay Stock Exchange as the first Electric Vehicle in automobile to be listed with the market capitalization of 250 Crores. The way every employee worked day and night to make this possible for us as a company. This not only shows my personal achievement but achievement of each and every member of Wardwizard Family.

How do you integrate corporate philanthropy or corporate social responsibility as a part of your business strategies?

As our tagline says “SOLUTION TO POLLUTION” . So it makes our process more inclined towards protection of our nature and work towards greener environment that ways. Wardwizard innovation and mobility limited believes in world where there is no pollution emitted from automobiles.

Being the first company to be listed in BSE in electric vehicle category was one in a long line of milestones for us, as we look forward to being the foundation brick for the new Atma Nirbhar India with our OEM plants and at Wardwizard we aim to empower 55000 plus entrepreneurs, in coming years to facilitate their dreams of starting their own eco systems.

What has been your driving force or philosophy in life?

Resilience, devotion and dedication that’s what makes me move forward. In order to bring some changes you have to break through some walls. Once you have convinced the majority you have to start to execute.

What are the other philanthropic works you are involved in?

As to promote small scale business in rural areas we at Wardwizard believe that we should empower other businesses and encourage them by helping them anyway possible. Be it a upcoming newspaper who wants to expand their operations or be it a young entrepreneur with a new idea to start it’s ecosystem, or be it an stakeholder who wants to start his/her own OEM plant. Through my past struggles I have always learned and believed that no one should face an issue of the capital when they are thinking of starting their own business.

How do you define success and how do you measure up to your own definition?

Non- dependency of company and my employees on anybody and well-being of near and dear ones. If my employees and near ones are happy I feel like I have achieved something.
