# GS Caltex India relaunches Kixx lubricant brand with new look 2026-08-21T23:11:58+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet GS Caltex India has unveiled the refreshed global identity of its flagship lubricant brand, Kixx, in India as part of a global brand evolution after two decades. The rebranding was announced in Bengaluru on July 31, 2026. The updated identity features a modernised logo and the new slogan, 'Lubricating the Future.' CEO and Managing Director Vijay Savant said the refresh underscores Kixx's commitment to delivering high-performance lubricant solutions for India's evolving mobility and industrial sectors. The new branding will be introduced across products and customer touchpoints in phases. ## Indian Opinion Analysis This rebranding comes as the Indian lubricant market, valued at over Rs 15,000 crore, sees rising competition from both global majors and local players. GS Caltex, a joint venture between South Korea's GS Caltex and India's Hindustan Petroleum, is betting on the Kixx brand to capture a larger share in the fast-growing automotive and industrial segments. The company's phased rollout will likely target the more than 200 million two-wheeler owners and expanding industrial base. The next step to watch is how quickly the new branding reaches retail shelves across India's Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities. ## Coverage - thehansindia.com Straight news report of a brand launch announcement, no commentary or slant.
