Jayanth Jain shares how GM Modular continues to evolve its smart home ecosystem with a strong focus on intuitive technology, refined design, and seamless integration. From next-generation smart switches and advanced lighting to enhanced automation controls, the brand’s latest innovations are geared towards creating more personalised, reliable, and connected living experiences, bringing together convenience, aesthetics, and performance for modern homes.
GM Modular is a trusted brand in Smart Switches, Home Automation, and Smart Lighting. Could you tell us about the new range you showcased at Smart Home Expo 2026?
At Smart Home Expo 2026, we were excited to present an expanded and more refined version of our smart home ecosystem. This included our next-generation smart switches with enhanced touch responsiveness, a more intuitive user interface, and improved aesthetics that blend seamlessly into modern interiors.
We also introduced advancements in our smart lighting solutions, along with upgraded automation controls that focus on simplicity, reliability, and a more connected living experience. The idea was to offer solutions that are not only technologically advanced but also easy to adopt in everyday life.
What are the key features and innovations of this new range, and how do these products enhance the overall smart home experience for users?
The focus of this new range is on making smart living more intuitive and accessible. We have worked on improving response times, ensuring smoother app and voice control integration, and enabling more stable connectivity across devices.
One of the key improvements is in personalisation. Users can now create more flexible scenes and automation routines that truly adapt to their lifestyle, whether it is lighting moods, appliance control, or scheduled operations.
At the same time, we have paid close attention to design. The products are sleek, minimal, and crafted to complement contemporary spaces, so they enhance not just functionality but also the overall look and feel of a home.
Could you elaborate on the latest innovations and upgrades in your home automation offerings?
Our latest upgrades are centred around creating a more unified ecosystem. We are focusing on better interoperability between devices, stronger app performance, and easier setup processes.
We have also enhanced our automation capabilities to support more dynamic scenarios. This means users can create smarter routines that respond to time, usage patterns, or multiple triggers, rather than just simple commands.
Another important area is reliability. We have strengthened our systems to ensure consistent performance, which is critical for users who rely on automation in their daily routines.
Apart from the new range, what other products or device categories did professionals see at your stall during the Expo?
In addition to our latest smart home solutions, visitors explored a wide range of our offerings, including modular switches, smart door solutions, lighting systems, and lifestyle electronics.
We also showcased our integrated approach, where different product categories work together as part of a cohesive ecosystem. This is especially relevant for architects, designers, and system integrators who are looking for complete solutions rather than standalone products.
GM Modular has been associated with Smart Home Expo for several editions. How has your experience been, and how do you see platforms like these contributing to the growth and awareness of the smart home industry in the future?
Our experience with Smart Home Expo has always been very positive. It provides a great platform to connect with industry professionals, understand evolving market needs, and showcase innovations in a hands-on environment.
Events like these play a crucial role in building awareness and trust in smart home technologies. They allow people to experience products first-hand, which is often the turning point in adoption.
Going forward, we believe such platforms will continue to drive collaboration, inspire innovation, and accelerate the growth of the smart home industry in India.
