May he rest in peace.

Mr. Dhar was my first boss in TVS Motor in 2003. A thorough gentleman and a smart marketing man. He was credited for reviving TVS brand in Maharashtra, MP, Gujarat. Indeed a terrible loss for TML. This news was a shock to me as we were regularly in touch till this March..

RIP.

Huge loss for TataMotors especially when his final project NexonEV has become one of the fastest selling EV in India.
H1 2020 EV sales crossed more than 1000 units with Nexon EV contributing around 600 units to it and still lot of pending orders with most of the dealers.

Sad news indeed. What is it with young auto industry execs passing away at such relatively young ages? The pressure and work stress must be immense.

This is a very sad news! I was lucky to have worked in his team at TML, really a wonderful human being and a great leader!

A great loss to TML as well as his friends, family and acquaintances.

You will be missed sir.
