Castrol India Limited, a lubricant manufacturer focused on delivering high-performance solutions for evolving mobility trends, announced two new full synthetic additions to its two- and four-wheeler engine oil range, a new benchmark for the Indian lubricants market. As part of this transition, the Castrol Activ and Castrol GTX range will now get upgraded to full synthetic formulations across key viscosities.

“At Castrol, we closely track how consumer needs and mobility patterns are evolving. We respond with advanced lubricant technologies designed to keep pace with these changes. The launch of Castrol Activ Full Synthetic in two-wheelers and the full synthetic upgrade of Castrol GTX in four-wheelers mark an important step in the evolution of our portfolio. Together, they help bring the advantages of full synthetic technology to a wider base of riders and drivers,” said Kaushik Vedula, Vice President, Marketing, Castrol India Limited.
