Tejas Kshatriya Associate Vice PresidentHybrid & Electric Technology at KPIT Technologies Ltd., Pune.

I believe K K Wagh Education Institution has helped in laying a very strong foundation for my career. I have been associated with K. K. Wagh Education Institution for a long time. I joined K. K. Wagh Polytechnic at Niphad after SSC. I passed out of KKWCoE Nashik in 1995 from Electronics Department. I then joined KKCoE as a visiting lecturer after graduation. The Management, Professors and Staff always encouraged exchange of lively ideas and provided opportunities to try out things in the labs. This gave hands-on experience and developed interest in difficult subjects.

I started my professional career in 1995 by joining a start-up company Fox Controls in Nashik. I worked in Controls, Power Electronics and Software for Industrial Automation. After 8 years of exciting job at Fox, I moved to KPIT in 2003 to work in Automotive Domain. KPIT provides an excellent environment and culture for innovation. Automotive is my passion and I tried to apply my Controls and Power electronics knowledge in Automotive to improve the fuel efficiency of Internal Combustion Engine. I was doing this out of my passion at personal level. Converting this idea into reality and sharing with KPIT management took my career to the next level. Thanks to KPIT!

I have conceptualized, developed and engineered KPIT-Revolo Hybrid technology, authored 25+ patents in hybrid, electric and storage technologies. Revolo has received several awards and recognition. Honorable PM Narendra Modi Inaugurated the Electric Bus designed and developed by my team in 2015. IESA recognized me amongst 50 Indians who have contributed to growth of the Energy Storage and Micro-grid industry. I have cofounded “eAdicct Mobility Solutions” with motivation from my son Atharva to develop energy efficient electric bicycle for personal commute.
