Smarten, an Indian power backup and solar energy solutions company for residential and commercial use, has announced its target to expand its distributor network to more than 350 distributors during FY 2026–27. The initiative is aimed at strengthening the company’s presence across key markets and supporting growing demand for power backup and renewable energy solutions across the country.
Currently operating through a network of over 250 distributors across India, Smarten has built a strong distribution-led model that enables it to serve customers across diverse markets and geographies. As part of its growth strategy for FY 2026–27, the company plans to further strengthen its footprint and enhance access to its product portfolio across the country.
To support this objective, Smarten plans to appoint 108 new distributors across key regions of India, with North India accounting for 41 additions, followed by South India with 32, East India with 23, and West India with 12. The company will focus on strengthening its presence in existing markets while expanding into high-potential territories to enhance customer engagement and service support.
Speaking on the expansion plans, Mr. Rajnish Sharma, Whole Time Director and Chief Executive Officer of Smarten, said, “A strong distribution network is fundamental to building a sustainable business in the power backup and solar energy sector. Over the years, our channel partners have played a critical role in helping us reach customers across diverse markets and understand local energy requirements more effectively. As we work towards expanding our network to over 350 distributors in FY 2026–27, our focus is on strengthening market coverage, building long-term partnerships, and ensuring that customers have easier access to dependable energy solutions. We believe this initiative will position us to address growing demand across residential and commercial segments while supporting the wider adoption of power backup and solar technologies across India.”
The move comes at a time when demand for power backup systems and solar energy solutions continues to rise across residential, commercial, and small business segments. A stronger distributor network will enable the company to respond more effectively to market opportunities and support customers across a wider geographic footprint.
The company believes that a stronger distribution ecosystem will also play a critical role in supporting its long-term growth objectives while enabling greater adoption of power backup and renewable energy solutions across the country.
