From Humble Beginnings to Inspiring Success: GM Modular’s Journey

Each business begins with a sense of anticipation and excitement. Entrepreneurs frequently have a clear vision and are eager to bring their ideas to existence. They may spend numerous hours studying, planning, and strategizing to secure the success of their business. However, they face challenges and uncertainties that can make the voyage both exciting and daunting.

GM Modular was established in 2002, and since then, it has given living space a new outlook  in India. It has introduced ground-breaking home electrical products and accessories such as new generation switches, fans, home appliances, home automation, Bluetooth music players, switchgear, wires and cables, pipes, and a brilliant range of contemporary LED lighting and luminaries, which have transformed people's lives tremendously.

Over the years, the brand has introduced a diverse range of products across multiple segments. Today, the company provides end-to-end home electrical solutions for both residential and commercial applications, and it is a top switch and home electrical company in India.

In 2004, GM Modular launched the country's first modular switch lineup. This marked the beginning of a new revolution in the switching industry. Modular switches quickly became the most popular and widely accepted product due to their design, safety, and simplicity.

After establishing a significant influence in the switch sector, they moved into the LED lighting space. In 2016,  the G-Lux line was introduced, the first modular LED light in the country and a full game changer. The brand soon rose to prominence in the LED category, and it continues to create new premium LED products.

2016 also saw the launch of safety products such as switchgear (MCBs, DBs, RCCBs, isolators, etc.). Finally, in 2018, GM entered the household appliance market with the debut of fans. With a diverse portfolio of ceiling, ventilation, and personal fans, GM offers a complete range for the consumers. Today, the company serves a wide range of domestic and commercial needs throughout India, Africa, the Middle East, and Spain.

The organisation has also teamed with Occhio, a premium lighting solution from Germany, to bring high end premium decorative lights to consumers in India .GM further strengthened its position in the decorative lighting segment with the launch of a state-of-the art LED lighting showroom in Mumbai, in 2023. The brand continues to innovate and venture into new segments with the same philosophy of making lives comfortable and convenient for people.

Diversifying its portfolio of home appliances, with the new addition of Dry and Steam Irons as well as water storage heater, the company has proved its ability to broaden its product offerings and meet a broader spectrum of client needs. These new additions not only demonstrate their devotion to innovation, but also their focus on offering high-quality products at the best price. As GM expands its portfolio, it is prepared to strengthen its position as a trusted and innovative brand in the industry.
