"We have received all approvals for the Soul, as it will be called. The ARAI has also approved it. But we have been facing some supply chain issues with the current second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Once the vendor system and supply chain disturbances are sorted out, we hope, by June, or July 2021, we will be able to make launch plans concrete. The idea is to launch the Soul before Durga Puja and the festive season," said Didwania.
