Of course it is. It would have been better with the Military spec tyres.
I assume this is more of a concept than something in production, though these may find applicational use across the high ranges in North and North Eastern India.

But very happy to see a desi version of the renowned UNIMOG

Apart from the absence of the portal axles.

This would make a very competent off roading expedition vehicle. The 4X4 Tata 407 is around 6.5 lakhs, I wonder what would be the price tag for this. But anyhow I think for the adventurists its a much refined platform to build his dreams on.

Wandernomad, the 4x4 407 is over 10L OTR in Karnataka.
I wonder what this is priced at, can anyone find out?

Commercial plates/ commercial driving license I would expect.

Does anyone know the crane capacity? Replace a Hydra for lower capacities?
