NEXA Salt Lake (by dealer Jyote Motors) in Kolkata is our 4th high-end premium NEXA showroom in the city.

How are you positioning it for the GenY especially at the retail level?NEXA has transformed the way cars are sold in India and has created a niche in the market for customers who desire a unique car buying experience, built on pampering, innovation and technology. With all these initiatives, we are able to attract new categories of customers who were earlier not considering us.
