Managing Director

With an ethical and highly principled lifestyle, Rakesh Kumar Gupta, Managing Director of Z-Power Impex has been able to continue his family's two-generation old power management solution business by adopting modern style and values. The business started at the time of early independence when father of Mr. RK Gupta was lending batteries for power backup applications and for other social events. What started with battery trading and battery component assemble business is now a well-established brand as Z-Power currently is the leading supplier of batteries for inverter, cars, motorcycle & industrial segment from Chandigarh, Punjab.

"I would say that there were simpler challenges in 80s and 90s as there were not many competitors and this business used to be largely a monopoly business. But when we turned into a recognized brand in Punjab in 90s and later across India in post-2000, we started facing complex challenges. Handling every customer with utter precision and resolving their problems timely, Z-Power Impex has overcome many issues like taxation, reduced profit margin, increased operational cost, high cost of raw materials, investment cost and interest, and has adopted them in this faster technological advancement. I believe that in order to achieve anything prolific, there is sincere hardship involved. Still, with every new sunrise, we strive to perform better and better," says Rakesh Gupta, MD, Z-Power Impex.
