In India’s expanding mobility landscape, where data-driven decision-making is becoming critical, Arya Omnitalk is redefining the role of technology in fleet management, automotive safety, and infrastructure modernization. A joint venture between JM Baxi and Arvind Ltd, Arya Omnitalk is leveraging IoT to bring visibility, safety, and intelligent operations across automotive fleets, logistics networks, and public systems.
At the helm of this innovation is Paresh Shetty, CEO of Arya Omnitalk and Syntel by Arvind, who has spent over 25 years driving transformation in enterprise tech and communications. His vision aligns with the evolution of the automotive aftermarket and fleet services, from manual systems to digital, connected intelligence.
“Motorola has pioneered from being just a radio and walkie-talkie company to a comprehensive security and surveillance player. This move mirrors our own journey, using technology to create safer environments. Whether it’s helping police with body-worn cameras, or fleet operators with intelligent vehicle tracking, we are focused on delivering complete safety ecosystems, not just products,” he stated.
Safety Tech in Fleets and Modern Supply Chains
The company’s suite of IoT products includes GPS vehicle tracking, walkie-talkies, and a burgeoning safety tech portfolio that extends to body-worn cameras and environmental sensors.
One of its flagship safety tools is the HALO Smart Sensor, which Paresh describes as a breakthrough in non-intrusive environmental monitoring, ideal for vehicles, schools, and logistics hubs.
“HALO is 16 sensors in one. Think of CCTV as the ‘eyes’ and HALO as the ‘nose and ears.’ It detects gases, vaping, aggression, or distress calls, places where cameras either can’t be used or can invade privacy. In a future of connected mobility, this kind of layered safety,unseen but alert, will be critical across transport, logistics, and industrial environments,” he highlighted.
Powering Smart Highways and Toll-Free Transit
Arya Omnitalk also plays a pivotal role in smart infrastructure, partnering with government agencies and highway authorities. Its solutions include intelligent traffic systems, speed detection, fast-tag readers, and vehicle classification technologies, essential to efficient tolling and congestion management.
“In today’s highways, we’re not just reading FASTags. We classify vehicles, detect speeds, recognize number plates, and helps in automating toll collection at highways. What used to require several human operators at a toll booth can now be handled automatically. And the next step is multi-lane free flow. Soon, you won’t have to stop at all. At 120 kmph, the system will track you, bill you, and let you through,” he said.
These advancements don’t just boost highway efficiency, they save companies millions in fuel and time, while enabling transparent tracking and compliance.
Integrating Fleet Data With ERP Systems
Arya Omnitalk is deeply embedded in the commercial vehicle ecosystem—from long-haul trucks to urban fleet operators. GPS and IoT data help them track vehicles, assess driver behavior, optimize fuel use, schedule preventive maintenance, and integrate with systems like SAP.
“We’re not just a device company. We understand the customer’s ecosystem. Our systems can integrate with ERP platforms like SAP. We sync real-time data, vehicle health, fuel analytics and driver scores back into your enterprise platform. That’s how true digital transformation happens. It’s integration, not silos,” he stated.
By enabling predictive maintenance, remote diagnostics, and digital visibility, Arya Omnitalk is helping fleet managers revolutionize how they service and maintain vehicles, ushering in the next era of aftermarket services.
AI and 5G: Enablers of Real-Time Automotive Intelligence
As vehicle connectivity grows, technologies such as AI and 5G are becoming essential to real-time decision-making on the road.
“AI makes sense of data at scale. This is important because IoT systems generate immense volumes, especially in vehicles. Now combine that with 5G, which delivers massive data with low latency. The result is a responsive, intelligent mobility ecosystem, whether it’s safety alerts, autonomous driving inputs, or driver monitoring. AI and 5G will define the next decade of automotive evolution,” he explained.
The Urgency of IoT Adoption in Fleet Management
“If you’re not adopting IoT, you’re already late. But don’t just use sensors to track where your vehicle is. Use the data to make smarter decisions, improve fleet utilization, create shared mobility routes, increase load efficiency, deliver better customer experience. Choose partners who integrate end-to-end and help you monetize the intelligence. That’s where the real value lies,” he added.
Arya Omnitalk’s strength lies in its ability to design, build, integrate, and support solutions from device to data to service operations. With a vision rooted in making transportation safer and ecosystems smarter, the company is powering the future of connected opex-led automotive transformation.
“There’s a rapid change happening in the motor industry. Connectivity and data are at the heart of it. We’ve only scratched the surface. Whether it’s electric vehicles, shared logistics, intelligent highways, or smart service networks, there’s a massive journey ahead. And we invite all who are passionate about transport and tech to be part of this future,” he concluded.
