The CarzSpa Legacy
The CarzSpa journey began in 2006 when Anckur Sama, Founder and CEO, launched India’s first professional auto detailing studio in Surat, Gujarat. Sama, often referred to as the pioneer of the industry in India, identified a significant gap between local car washing services and the advanced, international-quality detailing that Indian car enthusiasts deserved.
Recognising the scalability of his successful model and the growing nationwide demand for professional car care, CarzSpa introduced the franchise concept in 2007. This strategic decision was driven by the realisation that supporting passionate entrepreneurs (“passionpreneurs“) was the fastest way to expand the detailing revolution. Franchising allowed CarzSpa to provide a proven business model and comprehensive support, training over 500 people through its dedicated detailing academy.
Today, the CarzSpa family has grown exponentially from that single studio. The network now spans 125+ active and upcoming detailing studios across India, Nepal, and Bhutan, cementing its position as the oldest and most trusted detailing franchise brand in the region. We document the success stories of 5 such proud franchise owners.
Harsh Tanna, H20 CarzSpa Ahmedabad: The Pioneer
Harsh Tanna, the owner of H20 CarzSpa Ahmedabad, exemplifies the long-term potential of the detailing industry. Driven by a clear goal from childhood to do something “car-related,” he launched his first detailing studio at the age of 21, 15 years ago. His longevity is a testament to the CarzSpa system’s adaptability and market resilience, as he has witnessed the entire evolution of the car care business in India.
His expanded understanding of the business has allowed his venture to expand multi-fold. Harsh recently invested in a second detailing studio in the Makarba area of Ahmedabad, which stands as one of India’s biggest. This move represents a massive scale increase: he upgraded from his original 1,500 sq ft facility to a new, state-of-the-art 9,000 sq ft studio, a six-fold jump in operational space. He calls this huge facility, achieved after 15 years, a dream come true.
Ambitious Targets and Market Insight
The new space eliminates the operational limitations of his older, smaller area and is crucial for achieving aggressive growth. Today, Harsh sets high targets, aiming for a minimum of 100 ceramic coatings and 50 Paint Protection Films (PPFs) per month.
He maintains high confidence in the future, stating that detailing is one business that will never go out of business. Furthermore, echoing the belief of CarzSpa Founder Anckur Sama, he notes that the market in India is still at a “very, very early stage,” signalling massive potential for continued expansion. This story illustrates that a deep commitment, when combined with a robust brand and a strategic vision, ensures sustained and evolving success.
Yash Gupta, CarzSpa Navi Mumbai: The Young Maverick
Yash Gupta’s journey at CarzSpa Navi Mumbai is a compelling narrative of entrepreneurial spirit and rapid success. At just 22-23 years old, Yash already had a proven track record, including success in the sneaker resale market, but his ultimate goal was the automotive industry. Recognising the gap in the premium market in the posh, high-rent area of Navi Mumbai, he took a significant risk that quickly paid off.
With relentless energy, an extreme passion for cars, and the support and guidance of his Regional Manager, Vishal, Yash proved his mettle immediately. In just 6 months of operation, his detailing studio had already crossed sales of ₹20 lakhs. His story demonstrates that for energetic entrepreneurs willing to leap, the CarzSpa model provides the structured guidance and market-ready brand needed to achieve significant financial milestones quickly.
Pranjal Khimsara, CarzSpa Jaipur-Ajmer Road: Trading Corporate Job for Passion
Pranjal Khimsara of CarzSpa Jaipur-Ajmer Road made the courageous decision to leave a stable, decade-long career in the banking industry to pursue his passion for cars. Coming from a family with no prior business background, starting his own venture was both scary and challenging. However, he found the security and structure he needed by partnering with CarzSpa.
Pranjal and his wife now manage the studio together, enjoying a fulfilling career that gives them the freedom to experiment and lead—something he lacked in his job. He stresses that CarzSpa’s support and guidance were instrumental in his entrepreneurial journey. Trading employment for ownership in a field he loves has given him immense pride. His experience serves as a powerful inspiration for others looking to transition out of corporate life and build a successful car care business centred on passion.
Andrew Christian, CarzSpa Nagercoil: Bringing Premium Service to Tier-3
Andrew Christian’s story in Nagercoil highlights the immense potential of the Tier-3 market. After working in the legal contracts team of an MNC, Andrew yearned to return home to be close to his family. His primary worry was whether his small Tier-3 city could support the demand for high-end detailing services. With no prior business background, the risk was magnified.
However, after speaking with CarzSpa, he realised the variety of quality services, from entry-level detailing to advanced coating, allowed him to cater to the full spectrum of local car lovers’ needs. Choosing CarzSpa became the “best decision of his life,” enabling him to generate a good income and pursue his career while remaining close to his family. His studio is now a local success, proving that the CarzSpa brand and quality can thrive anywhere, transforming a regional concern into a competitive advantage.
