Outline has appointed Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems as its exclusive distributor for India. The Mumbai-based company brings more than two decades of experience in professional AV distribution, along with a nationwide network and an in-house team of sound designers and application support specialists.
The partnership is designed to address demand across two distinct segments. For large-scale live events – including international artist tours, IPL-scale productions and major corporate events – Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems identifies Outline’s GTO and GTO C-12 line array systems as the primary offering, with the Superfly and Mantas 28 addressing the mid- to large-scale rental segment. On the fixed installation side, Outline’s P Series, A Series and H Series are intended to serve hotels, high-end clubs, places of worship and architecturally demanding venues.
Manikk Guptha, director of Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems, said: “India is becoming a major hub for performances by international and Indian artists, and events of that magnitude demand not just superior sound quality but enough power and headroom to handle massive crowds. In a country where a single tour can cross fifteen cities with different local crews at every stop, the ability to save and recall a complete system state is not a convenience – it is what keeps the show consistent from the first date to the last.”
Aritra Sarkar, country manager for India, Outline, added: “The appointment of Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems marks a significant step in strengthening Outline’s presence in the country. Their solid reputation, proven expertise and deep understanding of the local market make them the right partner to support our expansion here.”
Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems says it will provide technical assistance, certified training programmes and financial solutions tailored to local market needs across both end-users and rental partners.
