Scaling new heights, industry pioneers, The House of GBTL-Grasim and OCM have announced the launch of a new-age brand ‘GRADO’. With the advent of GRADO and the combined star wattage of the greatest actor of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan as the brand ambassador, brand ‘GRADO’ is all set to usher a successful new wave in the luxury fabrics and apparels industry. GRADO will cater to maximum product segments and across a range of price points so there is something for everyone under the brand name ‘GRADO’.
The product positioning and price points will play an important role to increase potential for the trade to cater to product segments and different end-customers, thereby increasing not only the retail width but enriching the consumer consideration set.

GRADO is a perfect amalgamation, of the finest quality, trendy designs and vibrant colours, the perfect fabric for all occasions under one brand.â€
Rajendra Agarwal, Mentor, said “We are extremely excited to announce the launch of GRADO from The House of GBTL-Grasim and OCM. We undertook great research for creating the power brand GRADO and for the TVC we appointed leading agency Ogilvy. Piyush Pandey came up with the name GRADO.â€
He added on saying, “With GRADO we have created a perfect union of luxury fabrics and apparels which is an ideal choice for all occasions. We are extremely honoured to have Bachchan endorse our brand, interestingly, he gave his approval not only because GRADO was backed by the legacy of two big established brands – GBTL-Grasim and OCM, but because he experienced the product first-hand, the fabric, the quality the finesse, the stitching. Once GRADO met his expectation he came on board as GRADO’s the brand ambassador.â€
