Motul India has expanded its Sehat Ki Samriddhi healthcare initiative in partnership with Smile Foundation, scaling the programme to 108 health camps across 27 districts from April to December 2026.

The corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative targets over 21,000 beneficiaries, providing medical diagnostics, consultations and medicines to auto mechanics & their families.

The rollout more than doubles the 51 health camps conducted in the previous year. Since 2024, the initiative has held 91 camps across hubs such as Chennai, Pune, Kolkata and Mangalore, delivering care to over 18,300 individuals.

Nagendra Pai, CEO, Motul India and South Asia, said, "Auto mechanics are the people who keep India's vehicles running every day, yet they remain one of the most underserved communities when it comes to healthcare. Sehat Ki Samriddhi's expansion to 108 camps this year reflects our deepening commitment to these communities. We want to ensure that auto mechanics and their families receive the care and support they deserve, right at their doorsteps."

Each camp provides consultations, diagnostics for blood sugar and haemoglobin, essential medicines and first-aid kits, with support from Motul employees & distributors handling ground operations.

Santanu Mishra, Co-Founder, Smile Foundation, added, "Sehat Ki Samriddhi is a strong example of what happens when corporate commitment meets grassroots need. Auto mechanics might be facing occupational hazards every day that go unaddressed until it becomes serious health crises. By bringing doctors, diagnostics, and screenings directly to these beneficiaries, we are promoting and ensuring preventive care."
