He is designated as VP, product innovations & process technologies in group research and advanced engineering. On the proud moment of the launch of new Mercedes with CGI technology, Bharat Balasubramanian exclaimed that it is like coming back home to him.

He shared his experiences of local trains in Mumbai and how he used to commute from Churchgate to Andheri during his college days. Bharat graduated from IIT in the year 1973 and took higher technical education from the Technical University of Karlsruhe, in Germany. It was on Thursday, 13th May that Bharat's dream came true and India got its Mercedes with the new CGI engine. The new C-class CGI equipped engines have replaced the Kompressor series of cars in India.
