Cooking at home is no longer just about filling plates—it’s about savouring flavours, saving energy, and making every meal a little more mindful. Taking this philosophy a step further, V-Guard Industries Limited, one of India’s most trusted consumer electrical and electronics brands, has stirred up the kitchen appliance space with a truly landmark achievement. Its Induction Cooktop Model VIC06V1 has become India’s first induction cooktop to earn a prestigious 5-Star (★★★★★) energy efficiency rating from the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE).

For home cooks who love whipping up quick breakfasts, slow-simmered curries, or late-night comfort meals, this recognition is more than a badge—it’s a promise of smarter, cleaner cooking. Designed and manufactured at V-Guard’s cutting-edge Perundurai facility, the VIC06V1 reflects the brand’s strong focus on indigenous design, in-house innovation, and uncompromising quality. The result is an induction cooktop that heats faster, cooks cleaner, and consumes less power—so you can focus on flavour without worrying about energy bills.

Safety and reliability are seasoned into the design as well. The cooktop features 3 kV surge protection, high–low voltage cut-off, and BIS certification. Its Grade A crystalline glass panel adds durability and a premium finish, while the lightweight build supports smooth handling and efficient performance. A 1-year product warranty and a 3-year warranty on the induction coil further enhance consumer confidence.
