Eureka Forbes is likely to extend its 4-year Aquaguard warranty to more models if early sales hold.
For operators
Eureka Forbes has launched 'Four Years Sorted', a 4-year unconditional warranty covering filters, spare parts and servicing with no AMC needed, on two Aquaguard models online and one at retail, so purifier sellers should expect shoppers to compare after-sales cover across brands.

Why it matters for the brand
Eureka Forbes is making after-sales cover its main pitch with a 4-year no-AMC warranty on three Aquaguard models, which makes service-network strength a competitive benchmark in water purifiers, though the signal shows no deal or partnership angle.
What to track next
- Models carrying the 4-year warranty past the two e-commerce and one retail models by the Q3 FY27 results would mean the offer works and rivals' AMC income is at risk.
- Eureka Forbes commentary on service costs and AMC revenue at the Q2 FY27 results
- Aquaguard ranking and review sentiment for the covered models on e-commerce
- Changes to warranty terms, exclusions or eligible models on the Eureka Forbes site
Likely next moves
Our read of what comes next — analysis, not reported by the source.
- Eureka Forbes is likely to push 'Four Years Sorted' hardest on e-commerce, where two of the three covered models sit, through the festive buying period.
- Eureka Forbes may extend the 4-year warranty to more Aquaguard models if the first three show better conversion than uncovered ones.
- Rivals such as Kent, HUL's Pureit and Livpure may counter with longer warranties or free-service bundles rather than match the 4-year headline.
- Eureka Forbes is likely to use the results call to frame the warranty as a way to win customers and build service relationships, not as a cost line.
- Service partners and retail dealers are likely to ask Eureka Forbes how filter and parts supply will be funded as covered units grow.
The counter-case
The case against this reading — not reported by the source.
This looks like a promotional wrapper on a narrow range, not a strategic shift. Only three SKUs are covered (two on e-commerce, one at retail), so it could be a tactical push to move specific models or clear inventory. A 'free' 4-year warranty that covers filters, spare parts and servicing is probably priced into the MRP, or is funded by the margin Eureka Forbes would otherwise earn from annual maintenance contracts. If so, the company gives up little: it moves revenue from a recurring AMC into the upfront price and borrows the warranty framing to sell it. 'Unconditional' claims in consumer durables often come with exclusions such as water quality limits, misuse, installation or authorised-service requirements, and we cannot see those here. Service-led and extended-warranty offers are also common in this category, so the signal does not show real differentiation. If rivals can match a 4-year promise on a few models quickly, the advantage fades after one campaign cycle. Finally, the signal says nothing about demand impact, so any claim that this changes competitive positioning is speculation.
