Outline has appointed Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems as its exclusive distributor for the rapidly expanding Indian market. Founded over two decades ago, Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems brings to the partnership a pan-India network, an in-house team of sound designers and application support specialists, and a desire to become the largest AV distribution house in India within the next three years.

India’s live events calendar is increasingly calling for systems capable of delivering concert-grade performance to tens of thousands of listeners simultaneously. At the same time, rapid development across hospitality, retail and cultural infrastructure is generating sustained demand for premium fixed installation solutions. “Outline is a brand on global riders, built for the premium segment, and capable of delivering unparalleled sonic quality at the right price points,” said Manikk Guptha, director of Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems.

“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,” he continued. “In a country where a single tour can cross 15 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.”

Hi-Tech Audio Video Systems will provide support to Outline users across India, including hands-on technical assistance, certified training programmes and financial solutions tailored to local market needs. Aritra Sarkar, Outline’s country manager for India, commented: “In a fast-growing market like India, we see strong opportunities across both the live sound and fixed installation segments. 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 – with a shared focus on delivering high-quality solutions and creating long-term value.”
