The 12,000 square metre Ahmedabad hub will add production capacity across Airfryers, Air Purifiers, and kitchen appliances, with Gulbahar Taurani, Managing Director & CEO, Versuni India, saying the expansion is aimed at faster response to Indian consumer demand and deeper localisation.

India’s home appliance manufacturing base is set to widen further as Versuni India expands its production footprint with a new facility in Ahmedabad, strengthening local capacity across key product categories and deepening its manufacturing presence in the country.
