Mr. Surendra Kumar Gupta

Mr. Surendra Kumar began his career in the carbon industry as a production manager and has since dedicated over 50 years to advancing carbon technology across various domains. With hands-on experience in every aspect of the business, from sourcing raw materials to closing sales, he has earned a prominent reputation in the industry.

In 1993, Mr. Kumar founded Neotech Carbon to address the Indian Air Force's challenges in sourcing carbon brushes for Russian fighter aircrafts. By 2024, Neotech Carbon had not only secured CEMILAC approvals for its base materials but also successfully indigenized over 130 types of carbon brushes.

Simultaneously, Mr. Kumar climbed the corporate ladder at his previous company, ultimately acquiring Rashtriya Vikas Ltd. in 2003. The company ran successfully in Varanasi until 2023, when production was moved to Gwalior for greater efficiency. Today, the company is now run by his son Mr. Aachman Gupta under his guidance and blessings.
