Hence, considering these factors we decided to come up with a new design which would encourage customers to proudly showcase their diesel generator in front of their homes, buildings and outlets. The elementary designs emerged from the contest which we had organised at the prestigious N, Ahmedabad. The winning design was then further enhanced by our in-house team before it was sent for volume production”.

The new compact leaf diesel generator has the following unique features:

•    Change from Box type shape design to new leaf shaped enclosure (now patented)
•    Graphics on the enclosure body to improve aesthetics.
•    Glossy finish powder coating
•    Leaf shaped suction louvres
