He cited India's growing role in global manufacturing, noting that approximately a quarter of all iPhones are now made in India. He highlighted Mahindra's record results, the new IQ platform, and a surge in patents from 56 to over 1,300 in a decade. He announced a major investment of 15,000 crores over 10 years in Nagpur. He acknowledged ongoing uncertainty, especially in West Asia, and called for an 'attack mode' strategy, drawing an analogy to Formula E racing, to accelerate through fog rather than wait for perfect visibility. He concluded by inviting shareholder questions and committing to respond to chat queries in the coming days.
