Back in the good old days, a very young and strongly motivated entrepreneur from a small town in North India had a dream – a dream to ‘scale and conquer’ the world of the Indian battery market. In fact, it seemed more like a nightmare rather than a dream. Because there were many formidable giants in the Indian battery market. Being an entrepreneur he was not at all deterred. His gut feelings said, “GO OUT, YOU CAN DO IT”. 

Inspired by his vision and dreams, he went out to conquer the world. He started his journey from Hathras, his hometown in his native UP, where he set up his first battery manufacturing plant way back in 2001.

Almost two decades later, the struggle is almost over. But there are still many hurdles to overcome on the way before he could reach the very Quasar of Nigeria battery market. Though very few may have heard of Mr. Durgesh Gupta at that time, now everyone in the battery industry knows and respects him as the master brain behind the phenomenal success of Quasar Batteries, which has emerged as the fastest-growing leader in this segment.
