Pitstop, India's first independent doorstep car service & repairs provider, today announced its plans to onboard 60,000 auto mechanics over the next 5 years as part of its aggressive expansion strategy in India.

The company currently has operations in India and Singapore and will be expanding exponentially in the next 5 years, both in India and internationally.

Mihir Mohan, CEO & Founder, Pitstop, said, "Auto mechanics in India are often deprived of their due in terms of acceptance by the society as a professional and also they have declining incomes, and no job stability. Our mission at Pitstop is to organise the car services sector by empowering auto mechanics with credible skillset and employing them as professionals with a study career and growth path. Auto industry is going through a massive change with talks of EV, AV, IoT etc and this requires a completely different skillset than what is traditionally available. Pitstop wants to lead the change by reskilling the workforce that is more in tune with changing times."

"We are determined to support at least 60,000 auto mechanics pan-India within the next 5 years, and onboard them in new cities as we expand our presence in India. They will drive Pitstop's growth in top gear." Mihir added.
