Gupta and Arkel Elektrik Elektronik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. (“Arkel Türkiye”) founded Arkel India as a joint venture in 2018 and has since overseen significant milestones, making the Company one of the strongest players in India elevator control systems and components market. Under Gupta’s leadership, Arkel India advanced its mission with the establishment of a state-of-the-art production facility, which is expected to become operational in early 2025.

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the current owners of Arkel Melih Küçükçalık (Co-founder of Arkel) and Mediterra Capital, for believing in my capability and integrity to lead Arkel in India.”
