CLIENT CONTEXT

Client Context

Mahindra Group, founded in 1945, is a diversified multinational conglomerate headquartered in Mumbai, with operations spanning automotive, agriculture, aerospace, IT, financial services, and renewable energy. Within the automotive segment, Mahindra is a leading manufacturer of SUVs, tractors, and electric vehicles, with a strong focus on innovation, sustainability, and customer-centricity.

As competition intensified and customer expectations evolved across digital and physical touchpoints, Mahindra sought to systematically diagnose customer experience gaps, benchmark service performance against peers, and implement data-backed interventions to improve Customer Satisfaction (C-SAT) and Net Promoter Score (NPS) across business units.
